It is that happy time of the month again, the second Thursday, and the first time this year where we’ll be gathering in front of our screens for some much needed social shenanigans! How was your holiday, Christmas and New Year celebrations? I can’t wait to hear – and of course – your knitting, did…

We’re heading into another Christmas with the pandemic hanging over us all, affecting business, work-life, travelling and hopeful plans to see our families and friends. I don’t know about you, but I definitely need a break from it all, and tonight is our golden opportunity to do exactly that. Let’s hang out and knit! I’m…

We’re on a stranded colour work craze for sure, with the Meadow knit-a-long in full swing, I am definitely suffering from the just-one-more-row-before… syndrome. Working on the same project, there is a bit of friendly rivalry happening as well, I just noticed that George is ahead of me with a few rows. Can’t have that…

I know I’m fairly late with this notification, but hopefully most of you know the drill by now! I am literarily drowning in my accounts these days with the VAT quarter deadline fast approaching, and I can’t wait to emerge from my paper piles, to have a break and spend an evening with you guys!…

It is official, I completely missed summer this year. Through out June and July we had the greyest coldest rainiest, and darkest days here in London, and what do you know, I kept getting updates from my friends in Norway about the summer of their life, 30 degrees and blistering sunshine – in NORWAY! Then…

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…

Guess what! I actually have a finished something to show off tonight. My SOSU Brioche + Mystery Shawl is done, ends woven in, blocked and ready in all its glory. AND I’ve moved onto, and well into, my current project … I am obsessing a bit, as it is stranded colour work and the rounds…

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…

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…

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…

What a day!!! The iKnit7 A Break in Tide KAL kicked off this morning, and I quickly realised that I would have to abandon all other plans made for the day and resort to a day in front of the screen with my ‘customer service’ hat on. But do I mind? Not at all! Nothing…

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…
