I'm running out of superlatives for my business partner...really what can I say?? Wow, this is one adorable, clever, exquisitely knitted baby cardigan!! Yes..Tracey C has done it again!!! With a new grandchild on the way she's pulling out all the stops...
Some of you might have made this design yourselves as it's from a Debbie Bliss book that's been around a while...Merino 150 (4ply) by Lang Yarns.

This elegant hexagon (jacket) cardigan has been exquisitely crocheted by Pauline L as an alternative styling of the design we are using for the crochet-a-long...she decided on 4ply and loves ♥️ fortunately there was a perfect Crazy Zauberball sock yarn sitting on the shelf!
I think it was an inspired choice, hopefully she'll be modelling it on Sunday.

Good morning all!
It has just occurred to me that I've only got 3 days to get everything ready for our Sunday event...so can I ask you to confirm that you want to take part in the CAL....I've got 20 names and I'd like to check that you are all still up for it?
I'm in hospital Friday for an anaesthetic and will not be in the shop Saturday either...so I need to get my skates on!
***If you want to be included but can't make the 21st, no problem, just give me a call, or drop me a message.💕

This is such a cute little cable sweater for a 3 to 6 months old. Question: does it seem like it's a boy design or is that just auto-suggestion because of the model??
I'd like to say a major Thank You to Julie E for so swiftly knitting it up as a sample for the shop!!
It took 2 balls of the beautifully smooth cotton and seaweed blend called Oceania by Lang..£5.50 per ball, 140m! We have lots of girly colours too👍🧶💕

Sue C is visiting Swansea again and popped in to see us! She's wearing a top she made a while ago that quickly became a favourite...it's knitted using Lazy Hazy Cotton DK - we now have about 20 colours in this popular yarn blend... she's going to let us know which pattern she used.

The kidsilk haze green striped top only needs the finishing touches of i-cord bind offs at the neck, arms and all around the bottom of this fab design by Tanis Fibres..(Sue joked that it might take a couple of years..well, I think she was joking!!!)
Avid knitter indeed, and joining us in the Crochet CAL starting on the 21st of this month...June!

Alyson B is a super crocheter - so am really pleased she's joining the Hexi Cardi CAL commencing on Sunday 21st JUNE 2026. However she's rather been hiding her light under a bushel when it comes to her knitting prowess!!! So here we have her wearing her take on the cable slipover that was our, SBY's, latest KAL...(who hasn't finished yet???? I can think of three!)..
I've liked them all and this is no exception...looks brill Al🧶💕

Dos Tierras means Two Lands, reflecting the sources of the two amazing fibers found in this ultra-soft yarn.
Malabrigo have created this sublime yarn by spinning together 50% of fine Uruguayan Merino wool with 50% baby alpaca from Peru, a DK weight yarn that is as versatile as it is beautiful. New colours available now!

I don't know what the weather was like where you were yesterday but here in Swansea it was sunny, yes, and windy and quite chilly at times! enough for Sue M...wearing her summer vest by Petiteknit - to also don her newly completed (large) Sophie Scarf...also by Petiteknit!!! She made her first 'sophie' in Rico's Fashion Cottony in a warm brown - its turned out to be a favourite so she's made a second in their great shade of blue...it's really soft and yet robust, lovely altogether!🧶
