The Homeward Bound Shawl is available as a kit in three gorgeous colourways in our online store, or you...

Help Us Keep Hackney Warm!
Dirty sleeping bags curled up on cardboard mats under railway bridges and in shop doorways, fear of abuse and always the cold: rough sleeping is a tough and unkind existence affecting increasing numbers of homeless people in Hackney. It’s a problem that we think has a special resonance with us as knitters. We are after all in the business of... -
Yarn Pairings for Pom Pom Issue 17 Summer 2016
There has been so much anticipation for this latest issue of Pom Pom here at Knit with attitude, especially after hosting the samples for Yarn Shop Day at the end of April. It's finally here! The garments fit perfectly with our Summer Top KAL, and even better, we've just received loads of new summer yarns here in the shop that are... -

Getting to know: Fiona Alice
We are always on the look out for new knitting designers and books here at the shop. We were so excited when East London local Fiona Alice's new book came out! Take Heart: A Transatlantic Knitting Adventure is published by Pom Pom Press out of Dalston, so this book is really made in our neighbourhood! Hot off the press... -
TAKE HEART - Ketch Harbour KAL
We are just about to cast on for this KAL starting tomorrow Monday January 4 and though it was about time we nailed down the details and offered some more inspiration. The Ketch Harbour pattern calls for the stunning Kettle Yarn Co Islington DK a lush BFL/silk blend, oh so soft, but still with a firm twist to give a stitch... -
Take Heart yarn pairings and KAL!
We are excited to have a brand new, hot off the press book in the shop. East London local Fiona Alice has created Take Heart: A Transatlantic Knitting Adventure.

Summer Knitting with Jess
It's starting to look like it will be another cracking summer season here in London, and that means it's time to take a holiday. We've organized an interview with the staff of the shop to see how they plan their vacation projects and what they may be bringing along. We will feature one of our staff members each week. What... -
Fibre Fridays: Soy and Bamboo
As knitters become more conscious of where their yarns come from, we are getting more interest in what are often categorized as vegan yarns. These are yarns that do not come from an animal. We've already talked about the most obvious ones, cotton and linen, but there are a few others that we carry in the shop as well that... -
Fibre Fridays: Alpaca
This week we want to talk about Alpaca! Alpaca is a great fibre originally from South America. The alpaca animal comes from the camelid family. The fibre is long and lustrous, with no lanolin or barbs that wool has. Alpaca is known for having fantastic drape and a bit of shine as well. Alpaca fibre is very warm, but can... -
