Ciné-Mailles: cinema and knitting, the unusual combo at the Studio des Ursulines in Paris - next dates

What if, for once, you swapped your traditional popcorn for needles and yarn? Welcome to the world of Ciné-Mailles, where cinema and the arts of yarn intertwine to offer you an evening as warm as a hand-knitted wool sweater.

The concept? Get together in the cozy Studio des Ursulines, the art-house cinema in Paris's 5th arrondissement, to watch a cult film while knitting or crocheting at your own pace. Gone are the days of watching a film frozen on your sofa: the Club Crochet Tricot Paris invites you to knit together, transforming a solitary activity into a moment of collective sharing.
