The Opal Wintersonne range is just lovely for crafting cosy and hard-wearing garments. Think snug jumpers, soft hats, scarves, and of course, socks – perfect for keeping the chill at bay. Its self-patterning design adds a touch of refined charm to your knitting, ensuring each sock is truly unique. Why not cast on now? You might just have a finished pair ready for when the cooler weather arrives πŸ˜…

We’re so excited that our Yarnsmiths Kid Mohair Silk yarn is finally here! This 25g ball of pure luxury is just perfect for creating beautifully draped shawls, charming accessories, and exploring all sorts of delicate projects. It works wonderfully doubled with our Merino DK, creating a lovely fabric as you can see in some of our latest patterns. We’ve already received such wonderful feedback from both our customers and designers who’ve had the pleasure of working with it. Shop it here.

We’re excited to share our latest collaboration with two of our wonderful team members, Helen and Dane. They’ve poured their hobbies and outside of work passions into creating two beautiful yarn packs using their favourite shades of Yarnsmiths Create DK. Dane, who lends a hand on his Dad’s farm during lambing season, has chosen a palette inspired by the natural beauty of the countryside. Helen, a keen gardener, has selected a softer range of greens, reminiscent of her blooming garden. Each pack includes a charming hand-drawn card, illustrated by Francesca, and a lovely leather tag, embroidered by Alex’s Dad. You can find both yarn packs on our website.

Lastly, we’d like to present the KnitPro Amore Interchangeable Tunisian Crochet Hook Set. This exquisite set of ten hooks is a true joy to behold, nestled within its own protective pouch. Each hook is lovingly handcrafted from smooth, durable wood, offering a warm, natural touch and effortless precision for your Tunisian crochet creations. The vibrant, striking red hue of the polished hooks adds a touch of elegance, making this set a stylish addition to any crafter’s toolkit. Complete with a selection of useful accessories and presented in a beautiful silver-coloured pouch, the Amore set is the perfect choice for those who appreciate both quality and timeless craftsmanship.
