Our Ilkley workshop space is usually only open when classes are in progress. Our open day is your chance to step inside and see what’s on offer at Duttons for Buttons’ dedicated workshop destination in the heart of Ilkley.

Meet our tutors and discover the exciting range of textile and needle crafting classes we offer.

Our workshops are for beginners and those who have already mastered a craft and want to expand their knowledge and techniques or are a little rusty. We run half day, full day and occasional evening classes, weekdays and weekends.

There is a huge range of classes on offer, from needle craft staples like knitting, crochet and embroidery, to more unusual crafts like bear making, crewel work, macramé and needle felting. Coming soon we have lace making and temari balls too!

Our class sizes are kept small so you get lots of attention from our expert tutors, who are all experienced makers, textile artists or designers.

At our Open Day, enter our raffle to win a voucher to put towards any class in 2026. And pick up a 5% discount voucher to try any of our workshops for the first time (returners automatically get a 10% discount on their next class).

Access notice: there are two steps up into our building at 3 Church Street, Ilkley LS29 9DR. We sincerely apologise if this prevents anyone from attending our open day and workshops.
