Virtual Knit Night September 16th
As many of you know, I was finally able to travel back home to see my friends and family for the first time in what feels like forever, and I am currently in Norway. What can I say, it is definitely very emotional and feels quite strange to have travelled such a distance, so to…

New Project – Newspaper by Joji Locatelli
So you take our favourite designer and pair it with our favourite yarn and what do you get? Pure magic if you ask me! The Newspaper jumper is not only stunning, it speaks to me on so many levels… Joji says about the design: I don’t like reading the news. I think I should do…

Virtual Knit Night September 2nd – CANCELED
UPDATE: Dear Friends. Well, turned out my knitting was not the only thing being a bit off today. And what a day! I’m not going to go into the details, except from it being a series of unfortunate events ending up with a complete public transport failure (if you’re in London you know how those…

What Maya and George Knits! – Brioche + Mystery Shawl
George’s Brioche + Mystery Shawl I love a mystery knit-a-long. The adventure and challenge of being faced with an interesting project and the unknown. You don’t know what direction it will turn. Often they include a fun stitch or a different kind of construction you haven’t used before. I also love choosing my colours, as…

Virtual Knit Night August 5th
After a much needed break last week, I am back in the shop trying to get back on track, admittedly I’m still in a bit of a dozy state – going away was just so nice. Even better, my travelling by train blessed me with plenty of knitting time, and you know what? I’m so…

Virtual Knit Night July 22nd
It has been blistering hot in ol’ London Town the last few days and I’m running around like a headless chicken trying to gather my mind and getting myself sorted as I am going on holiday tomorrow. I know any small business owner can relate, the last weeks before going away you basically have to…

Virtual Knit Night July 8th
I should be doing accounts – but I rather knit! Thursdays I work from home, and they are my designated admin days where I try to get as much done as possible before rewarding myself with our awesome meet ups online! I’ve got some crucial dead lines coming up, and I really shouldn’t procrastinate, but…
