Virtual Knit Night June 24th
What a day!!! The iKnit7 A Break in Tide KAL kicked off this morning, and I quickly realised that I would have to abandon all other plans made for the day and resort to a day in front of the screen with my 'customer service' hat on. But do I mind? Not at all! Nothing - and I really mean...

Virtual Knit Night June 10th
We've been meeting up virtually every week for more than a year, but with the restrictions easing up and with more activity in the shop, we decided to start doing them every other week. I have to admit it was a bit weird not seeing you all last Thursday, but in anticipation I am even more excited to meet up...

What Maya Knits - Take Stock
After a really long winter, it honestly feels like we skipped spring all together, the summer heat has finally arrived to London. This is the time of year where I will gather all my 'woollies' give them a good rinse, a new blocking, and zip them up to be locked away for hot summer days and the dreaded moth season...

Virtual Knit Night May 27th
Oh my did I fall deep deep down the rabbit hole ... After a year playing the 'I'm going to get myself so organised and finish all my projects'-game, I've now failed completely. I've got at least three nearly done projects, but then I signed up for the SOSU KAL which I am currently completely obsessing about, and there is...

What George Knits - The Longfellow Cardigan
I never was into cardigans until I knit the Playdate in 2016. I love that cardigan and have worn it non stop ever since. So I think its high time that I knitted a new one. Not wanting to knit the same pattern again I came across the Longfellow by Michele Wang (Ravelry link). This simple cardigan is very similar...

Virtual Knit Night May 20th
Done, dusted and fully vaccinated! And full of hope! I had my second shot yesterday, and I am so excited to have it done with. Many of you know that I had quite a hard time with the side effects of the first dose, which basically had me floored for days. Since then I've heard all sorts of opinions on...

Virtual Knit Night May 13th
I'm in between projects, or that is, I have secured my steeks, and there is no way I'll be making the first cut without George mentally holding my hand, so that will just have to wait until over the weekend. Meaning, I'm in between. Oh the struggles, what to do? Either I continue on my unfinished projects pile and work...
