Clover Sweater by using a mix of Bio Balance, Brushed Alpaca and Soft Kidsilk

Basic 4ply Socks by using Opal Mixtape

Into the Wild by using Woodnote and some MoWool

And finally the wonderful The Garment by using Forest Aran

It’s time. The Garment by is being cast on at Stitches

That’s right people, I have given in. Thrice held Forest Aran by , to create a beautiful rainbow

Very unlike my normal posts, but I’m excited and this made me giggle a bit too much, so allow me to be a little silly for I am only human

Kits Galore!!!!!

We have had a restock of some old favourites and some new kits hit the shelves these past couple of weeks!!

We now have 10 cross stitch kits from Cotton Clara !! Super fun to make, easy to do, great instructions and they look effective too

We’ve also had a stonker of a top-up from Corinne Lapierre ! Adding 6 new felt kits to our selection, they’re just the sweetest kits and look incredible!

Maybe not kits but one of my favourites, we’ve added 5 new East End Press garlands to the stock, some nice autumnal ones ready for the changing season!

Last but certainly not least, we’ve introduced some embroidery kits and a new felt kit from Stephanie Carswell 🧵 Craft Kits for Beginners 🧶 ! These are brilliant to get you going with embroidery, and the felt kit is just perfect for Autumn!

We’re open 6 days a week ready and stocked with all kinds of craft kits for your crafty needs!
