First of all I have to say that I am completely overwhelmed by the response to my anniversary collection – thank you, thank you, thank you – I am so grateful that you like it and that so many of you actually want to make the designs we have come up with! Most of our test knitting positions have been...

Virtual Knit Night July 30th
I've finished the body of my Summer KAL Milkweed determined to be able to wear it when I'm going on holiday next week! Tonight I'm getting onto those sleeves, and hope to see you and your knitting at our Virtual Knit Night. I did some quick counting and what do you know - this is our 20th Zoom gathering! The...

Test Knit Open - Knitting With Attitude
It has been more than a year since George and I started working on the Knit with attitude's 10 year anniversary book. I can't describe the feeling when all our designers came back to us with their samples, and the joy and enthusiasm we had when announcing the upcoming book last autumn. Everything seemed to come together beautifully, what a...

Virtual Knit Night July 23rd
We launched our Summer KAL – KWA does Milkweed last week, I'm barely able to put my knitting down. The feel of the two threads twisting together around my fingers, the linen and the silk, the lush smooth and crisp fabric it makes, let me tell you, this project is such a pleasurable tactile experience and I can't wait to... -
Virtual Knit Night July 16th
I was meant to finish up a few wips, but then I fell in love with not one, but two, jumper projects. I'll be working on one of them tonight and am super-excited about showing you the progress! The details are the same as always, we are on from 7pm to 8.30pm UK time, you'll find the link to join...

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...
