It Came Crashing Down
I am not a morning person, I am one of those who are deeply in love with my bed and look at every minute I get in it as quality time, so normally you will see me rush in to the shop last minute most days. But with family activities planned for this weekend, and quite a few unfinished things...

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...

Our Neighbourhood - Kickstarter Campaign
An important part of what Knit With Attitude is and what places us within our community is the relationship with our neighbours. That's everyone from our friends and customers that come through our doors, attend our monthly knit nights or come in for a chat when they are out and about in Stoke Newington. Being a shop you interact with...

What do you get the knitter that has everything...
This time of year we are struggling to find that perfect gift for our knitting friends and maybe even that cheeky Christmas present for ourselves. Yarn, Tools and accessories can sometimes be tricky. Knowing what a knitter has already, what yarn they like, their favourite colour can be a mine field. So what about a book? A book as gift, is a gift... -
Yarn Pairings for Pom Pom Quarterly Issue 27 – Winter 2018
This is a sumptuous and rich issue of Pom Pom. Think warmth, heavy cables and some opulent victorian styling. This issue is a collaboration with Norah Gaughan who is involved as guest editor. She worked with the idea of tough Victoriana. Not the traditional notion of the delicate lady surrounded by flowers, but a woman of strength and resilience, a warrior. I've gone through... -
Why Knit with attitude
Hello Maya... I refer to the email I received today.* Knitting is for myself and many others a creative art and very therapeutic. However when knitting is used for political statements and activity it takes away from the magic and efficacy of this beautiful craft. I would urge you to think carefully about the statement that you and your group... -
