What George Knits – Bassenfell Scarf
The full range of the relaunched Hey Mama Wolf yarn has been calling me from the shelves so I’ve started a little scarf side quest. I have got it into my head that I want to knit one skein scarfs in all the Hey Mama Wolf yarns. For one they make a great shop sample…

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…

WIP Wednesday – Festoon Socks
The luxury of time has made me revisit some old WIPs (work in progress), that have sadly been left forgotten. For no reason whatsoever the lure of a new project has left these poor things unloved. So with this series I am starting a WIP Wednesday and I’m encouraging everybody to shine a light on…

Exploring Plant Dyes
It always amazes me what range of colours you can get from plants and plant material. Not only can they be subtle and delicate, they can be strong, punchy and vibrant.

What do you get the knitter that has everything… part 2 – that special skein.
Following on from my earlier blog post I have been thinking over what makes a good gift for a knitter. There are a lot of different choices for yarn so I have decided to focus on that special skein. These special skeins make the perfect knitters treat. They might not be something that a knitter…

Interview with Jule from Hey Mama Wolf
