We Can Do It!
Keep Knitting with Attitude! I'm on the sofa today still trying to catch my breath following the whirlwind that was our grand re-opening yesterday. We were so touched by those of you who came to celebrate with us in person or who sent messages via email and through our social media. Thank you! When you’ve been on a journey or... -
Virtual Knit Night October 13th
No guys, I haven't forgotten, but things have been rather hectic here lately so apologies for the later than usual post on our virtual tonight. What can I say, I do have a project that I've been working on, but to be honest not much knitting has happened since I saw you last - however, I did build a new... -
New Yarns - New Joy!
It continues to be a whirlwind here in the shop with plans being made, construction under way and yarns and notions arriving ahead of our shop expansion later this month. It is this last point thought - THE YARNS - that you’re probably most interested in, so let’s talk about that! Knit With Attitude has always been about doing our... -
All Change Please
In the last few newsletters I've told you the story of how Knit with attitude came to be, and I've teased and dropped hints about big changes ahead – I guess it is time to reveal what our next chapter will look like. I'm feeling rather bittersweet today as we announce some exciting news at Knit With Attitude, but it’s... -
Virtual Knit Night September 8th
Today is the first day, I think in three months, that we have temperatures below 20C, And I have to admit I am slightly relieved. I'm sure I'm not the only one sleeping better with cooler nights, and the nip in the air inspires me to cast on ALL THE THINGS! So I am very curious to see if you... -
That's Just Pants!
Knitted pants you say? If someone had suggested this for me some years back, I think I would have laughed so hard my coffee would have splurged out my nose. I mean, my kids grew up wearing super cute soakers and me-made leggings for sure, but seriously - for adults? I totally could not have pictured myself making some, and... -
Virtual Knit Night August 11th
You know when you're going on holiday and panic strikes because you can't make your mind up to what project to bring? So not being able to make a decision you bring a wider selection of WIPs (work in progress) and all the yarns to go with them! This time around this was NOT me, I was going to strategise... -
Virtual Knit Night July 14th
I just have to admit defeat in this friendly knitting race of ours, as George has already finished his. In fact, in this heat he is strutting around in his summer tank, just proving what a brilliant summer garment this is, and I am really eager to get mine done as well! So it's pretty obvious what I'll be working... -
Colour Inspiration
Some colour / fibre combos to feast your eyes this summer weekend! You know those patterns where it says for requirements: "200g - 300g of fingering or 4Ply yarn", where the designer have used the must stunning colour combo but when coming up with one of your own you draw completely blank. With the arrival of some new gorgeous Black... -
Virtual Knit Night June 9th
Yay! I've finished my jumper! Well almost, I still need to weave in the ends and block it, so my dilemma for tonight is - do I spend the evening weaving in ends or do I cast on for my next project... The thing is, I'm going on holiday next week, and every holiday warrants a holiday project, so lately... -
Summer Knits
Summer is here and as the temperatures are rising so is my urge to cast on something new. I'm dreaming up lightweight, cool against hot skin, quick knits that can be finished before the season has passed. Temperatures and knitting urges are sadly not the only thing rising these days, the cost of living has reached new levels, and even...
