Our Story

Pioneering Craft Travel Since 1998

Craft Cruises was founded in 1998 after our founder received knitting lessons and attended Stitches West. We organized the first educational knitting cruise for hand knitters and have since evolved into a leading operator of craft-focused travel experiences, offering numerous trips annually to destinations around the world.

Our Mission

Making Travel Easy, Rewarding, and Fun

Our goal is to enable like-minded people to travel more and find greater enjoyment in activities they love. We focus on creating shared travel experiences that build lasting connections among fiber artists and craft enthusiasts from around the globe.

What Makes Us Different

Quality Over Quantity

We deliberately select our instructors based on teaching excellence, engaging personalities, and deep knowledge of their craft. Our industry-leading single traveler share program helps reduce costs while our diverse offerings span knitting, crocheting, needlepoint, handspinning, beading, and mixed media adventures.

Our Community

Decades of Shared Adventures

Many of our customers have been traveling with us since 1999, a testament to the lasting friendships and exceptional experiences we create. Join our community of passionate crafters who share your love of fiber arts and travel.
