Knitting Natters
Edition 5 May 2024
Hello to all our cherished champions of chunky knits and nifty needles!
​
As the first blush of summer warms the air, we’re threading some exciting tales into this edition of Knitting Natters. At the helm, don’t miss our cosy crafternoon on Sewing Street this Monday, 3rd June, where we'll "Get Cushy" with some delightful throw cushions. It’s sure to be a plush affair!
​
We’re also unfurling the yarn on something rather special—our brand new Juey Collaborative Corner. Here, we’ll spotlight the splendid folk stitching brilliance into every project, from yarn spinners to pattern pioneers. It's about giving a cheer for the hands that craft with us!
​
Tickle your fancy with our latest treasures in the kit corner: the Funky Chunky Knitting Needles and our Customisable Herringbone Headband Kit. They’re not just tools; they’re your ticket to creating with panache and a dash of flair!
​
Peek ahead and you'll spot hints of our soon-to-blossom Trade Members area, ripe with exclusive perks just waiting to be plucked. Plus, we’ve sketched out a few sun-soaked project ideas—if the weather holds up, that is. Ever the optimists, we Brits keep our knitting needles crossed for sunshine!
​
So, whip out your wool and ready your needles. We're set for a season of stitches, style, and shared stories. Let’s craft a summer sprinkled with creativity and community, shall we?
As always, it's worth noting that it's normally quite quiet around here in July and August so it gives me a chance to start to work on some great projects for the Autumn/Winter seasons. I'll look forward to sharing with you soon.
​
With sunny stitches and a skein of excitement,
​
As always, love from
​
