Knit Together!

In association with the Keep Yarn on our Streets campaign

Hello and welcome to our summer special! As I write this we’re already planning for sunny, summery days out looking for new supplies. If you’re after some staycation inspiration this year, check out our guide to yarn shops in Oxfordshire, we also talk with the owners of Seahorse Yarns & Crafts in the picturesque New Forest, and feature craft shops near castles. Plus, we have all the details on knitting hair loss dollies for Cancer Hair Care, the #KnitWellbeing2021 campaign and a copyright-free lace mitts pattern, so you’ll never run out of things to knit! You can also find an interesting Q&A with UK Alpaca and the INstitches Knitting Group, along with details on the fascinating Zwartbles sheep breed. Please do tell us about any club or charity news you have, and remember to send in your community stories and pictures. We can’t wait to hear from you!
