We are making some changes to our collections and need to make space for some of the new yarns we are getting in stock.

Take advantage of the great savings we offer on mill ends, bulk buy options and discontinued yarns - only while stocks last!

I recently was contacted by one of our customers who wanted to find easy care yarns on our website. 

That got me thinking. Of course we all want to look after our beautiful hand knit items, but at the same time we don't all have the time to hand wash everything we knit. 

Luckily, we do stock quite a range of yarns that can be washed in the washing machine on a gentle or wool setting using wool detergent, and they will come out beautifully.

To make it easier for you to find easy care yarns and knit kits in our collection, we have now added...

What is nettle? Nettle fibres have a long tradition in the textile industry that reaches back into ancient times. 

Nettle has been used for millennia to make cords and ropes or weave them into cloth but was gradually forgotten when cotton and later acrylic fibres took over.

And now we are pleased to be able to offer you nettle as a knitting yarn! Pascuali Nepal, is a gorgeous blend of 60% cotton, 28% linen and 12% nettle. 

We now have most sizes of Addi CrasyTrio (FlexiFlips) back in stock. We are still waiting for size 2.5mm. UPDATE: The latest information we have is that there has been some significant delays in the production of size 2.5mm needles and they are now not expected back in store before March 2019. Limited supplies - if you are keen to have these needles I recommend to be quick. They tend to sell out incredibly quickly.

We try very hard to provide the kind of customer service you would expect from your local yarn shop.
