January 2026 – Happy New Year!

We can finally share the news that Holy Island Crafts is on TV!

Pat features In Series 4 Episode 1 of Robson’s Weekend Escapes, first broadcast on Monday 5th January 2026 on BBC2 at 6.30pm and now available on BBC iplayer.

We had an interesting afternoon last May on a beautifully sunny day but with a typically Island chilling wind – in the grounds of the Manor near our Workshop the Knottery – where Pat taught Robson Green and Rev. Richard Coles each how to make a Cuthbert’s Cross Garden Wall Art, using old Fishermans’ rope. Both celebrities were lovely chaps and we had some interesting conversations over coffee and cake whilst warming up in the green room (the dining room of the Manor!).

Here are a few ‘behind the scenes’ shots taken mostly by Alison, who was avoiding the cameras, and also by our friend Lizzie who came as moral support!

A warm welcome to you if you’ve come to visit us because you’ve enjoyed the programme!

December 2025 – Website Updating!

We are currently writing a big update to our website!

If you visit a pages that has a maintenance flag at the top it might change when you next renew the page in your browser. Don’t worry – this is normal as I have to update live!

We are also having an update and restructure to our product catalogue so there may be missing images or details. We have to do this alongside making stock ready for the new season, so nothing happens terribly quickly. If you think there is an inconsistency or error or something missing then please do email us using the details on the Contact Us Tab.

Thankyou for your patience!
