Stay in Brighton’s Knitted Wonderland
October 28th, 2011The Hotel Pelirocco in Brighton is well known for its themed rooms inspired by pop subculture, musicians and visionary artists. The latest addition is Kate Jenkins’ knitted winter wonderland.
Renowned for her collaborations with top designers like Marc Jacobs and knitted art installations (a cafe and a garden so far!) – she has gone about decorating the room with bespoke knitted covers, a beadspread and even a full English breakfast!
Far from being twee, this stylish experiential project allows you the chance to enjoy the craft first hand – with bookings available for a limited time.
