    Virtual Knit Night June 10th

    We’ve been meeting up virtually every week for more than a year, but with the restrictions easing up and with more activity in the shop, we decided to start doing them every other week. I have to admit it was a bit weird not seeing you all last Thursday, but in anticipation I am even…

    What Maya Knits – Take Stock

    After a really long winter, it honestly feels like we skipped spring all together, the summer heat has finally arrived to London. This is the time of year where I will gather all my ‘woollies’ give them a good rinse, a new blocking, and zip them up to be locked away for hot summer days…

    Virtual Knit Night May 27th

    Oh my did I fall deep deep down the rabbit hole … After a year playing the ‘I’m going to get myself so organised and finish all my projects’-game, I’ve now failed completely. I’ve got at least three nearly done projects, but then I signed up for the SOSU KAL which I am currently completely…

    What George Knits – The Longfellow Cardigan

    I never was into cardigans until I knit the Playdate in 2016. I love that cardigan and have worn it non stop ever since. So I think its high time that I knitted a new one. Not wanting to knit the same pattern again I came across the Longfellow by Michele Wang (Ravelry link). This…

    Done, dusted and fully vaccinated! And full of hope! I had my second shot yesterday, and I am so excited to have it done with. Many of you know that I had quite a hard time with the side effects of the first dose, which basically had me floored for days. Since then I’ve heard…

    Virtual Knit Night May 13th

    I’m in between projects, or that is, I have secured my steeks, and there is no way I’ll be making the first cut without George mentally holding my hand, so that will just have to wait until over the weekend. Meaning, I’m in between. Oh the struggles, what to do? Either I continue on my…
