A Creative Journey
I’ve known Kaja for a few years now, one of the very first customers I had coming through my doors when setting up my shop and with time a dear friend, and I’ve had the pleasure of observing her approach to knitting. A process I find both fascinating and amusing. You see, where most of…

Furry Christmas Baubles
Do you have everything sorted for Christmas yet? Everything neat and dusted, parcels bought and wrapped, festivities planned? I’m not even close! I mopped the kitchen floor last night after getting the kids to bed, and that’s about it. No parcels sorted, no plans for the holiday, I’ve knitted five rows of the sweater that…

Introducing Louisa Harding
I first came across Louisa Harding years ago, when as a new mum I bought a pattern collection named ‘The Magical World According to Miss Millie’, and found myself completely enhanced by the fairytale world of Louisa’s children clothes.

My Mini Yarn Crawl
…..London, England 9 787 426 people….. …..Trondheim, Norway 181 513 people…. When moving to London for the first time more than 8 years ago I was so surprised to find that there were less yarn shops in this enormous city than there were in my Norwegian home town. This has changed somewhat over the years,…

#kwasummer Give Away
What’s your summer knitting project? I’m on my way back home to Norway for my summer holiday and just popped by the shop to make sure I have enough yarn for my summer knits. It seems like I’ve got sleeves issues these days, as this is what’s left to do on several of my projects,…
