A Summer KAL - KWA does Milkweed
If you've followed my social media lately you know I've been talking about the wonders of thinner weight yarns. Now, let me be clear on one thing, I am not a lace knitter, I just don't have the patience in me to complete those amazingly beautiful but oh so stunning projects knitted with very fine yarn on very thin needles... -
New Yarn - Countess Ablaze Rebel Batch Resist & Hope
The last time I saw Countess Ablaze was back in February at the Unravel Festival. We were so lucky to be stand neighbours, and in between managing our stands we hung out in the back chatting, laughing, ranting, putting the world straight (as one do). “I always plan to be sensible when I see you, I said, to plan my... -
Virtual Knit Night July 9th
This week I learned to drink gin, and so so so paying for it afterwards, I'm not sure whether or not to take my new knowledge on to tonight's knit night. BUT I do know one thing for sure, and that is that I will show off my newly finished shawl, ends woven in, newly blocked and all... The details... -
What Maya Knits - KORO KORO Shawl
As the pandemic spread and London went into lock-down, I went into melting mode. Turning to my knitting for comfort, none of my ongoing projects gave the nurture or the calm I was looking for. Maybe this is because they were newly started summer projects, in thinner yarns and airy stitches, neither carried the promise of what I needed the... -
Virtual Knit Night July 2nd
It is Thursday, and we will be hanging out virtually once more! Aaaand, I've actually got something to show off - a brand new finished project! Well almost, my main task for tonight is to weave in my ends. Hope to see you there! The details are the same as always, we are on from 7pm to 8.30pm UK time... -
Time For a New Project - Knitting with Cumulus & ...
Cumulus is one of my favourite fuzzy yarns we have in the shop and we have expanded the range. With a great selection of jewel like colours there has never been a better time to try out this yarn. Cumulus is wonderful just on its own but it is also great combined with a whole host of other yarns. Cumulus... -
Virtual Knit Night June 25th
It is Thursday, and we will be hanging out virtually as one do these days. The heat has most definitely struck London climbing above 30 °C yesterday, I'm not sure what would be more suitable for tonight, ice cream or something bubbly and chilled in my glass. What ever you fancy yourself, I am very much looking forward to seeing... -
New Bags From Muud

Get organised, carry your projects in style and look oh so cool while doing it. Muud have been producing high quality leather bags and accessories... -
Virtual Knit Night June 18th
The shop is open after the lock-down!!! But what happens then with the weekly virtual knit night? Well, nothing, for the foreseeable future. We are all enjoying them so much, and there are so many of you that have expressed a want for them to go on - so we will! Everyone are welcome to join, and I for one... -
Shop Re-Opening June 15th
The last few days in the shop had been all about filling up those shelves with woolly goodness and getting ourselves ready to re-open. At Knit with attitude and Of Cabbages & Kings, I can't even begin to tell you how excited we all are to be opening our doors and welcoming you back again! We're trying to structure our... -
Virtual Knit Night June 11th
Today is the first day I am spending in the shop for the first time in three months, and I am overjoyed spending my day with my lovely colleagues (my dearest friends) back in my happy place. Today it looks like this, but Monday we'll be ready for you! And so this is a later-than-usual invitation, I know, but I'm just... -
Virtual Knit Night June 4th
How can it be June already? My sense of time and days of the week has definitely been skewed during isolation, as it has for many of us. Someone told me that the days of the week as we knew them, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and so on, are now known as Thisday, Thatday, Otherday, Someday, Yesterday, Today and Nextday. However...
