Unspun, Pre-wool, or Plötu – but what is it and how to work it?
There is a Norwegian saying that goes something like this: A much loved child is known by many names. And so goes the story with this type of yarn, lush, warm and quite intriguing, known as Unspun, Pre-wool, or Plötu – but what is it and how to work it? Plötu in Icelandic is directly translated to 'board' or 'disc... -
Virtual Knit Night December 8th
Today is some day! We are expecting the last of our major deliveries before Christmas, a much anticipated one, which means that George and I will be on our feet, head down in boxes to get our pre-orders wrapped up and sent out just as fast as they came through our doors. But it is not everything 'last' happening today... -
Virtual Knit Night November 10th
Sometimes, no matter what an organising mastermind you are, things don't work at plan. And today is such a day for me. I am supposed to be on a plane going to Norway tonight, and there are full on strikes happening across the public transport network in London. To be able to get to the airport I've had to be... -

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...
