I Knit for Text Santa

This Morning and TextSanta Christms jumpers...

For the past few weeks I've been working on a special project for This Morning and TextSanta appeal. I was asked to make the final three chosen designs of the This Morning Christms jumper competition. Viewers submitted their deigns, Gok Wan chose his top three and then I Knit made them.

I only had 10 days to hand knit the three jumpers so I receuited the help of some super, amasing people. Very special thanks to Brenda, Coral, Jan, Jan, Maggie and Ros.

Without you the jumpers simply would not have happened. I'm so grateful for your hard work and super knitting skills. You are all amazing.

Fyberspates Vivacious Pattern collection launch at IKL

We are super excited to welcome Jeni from Fyberspates to shop on Saturday 29 November.

Jeni will be with us to launch the new Vivacious pattern collection. Jen will present a trunk show of all the new garments for you to squish and squeeze and you can talk to Jeni about the patterns and yarn and it will be lovely.

Hard copy books will be available and a code for you to download your own electronic version will accompany each book sale!

Everyone is welcome! We'll have nibbles and cake and tea and cider and, of course, loads of time to knit and crochet.

Vivacious is one of my favourite yarns and one of IKL's best selling. That's because it's gorgeous! Superwash merino with a high twist in 4ply and DK, the yarn is soft and squishy and the colours are amazing! You can see some of the colours below.

So come and see us on Saturday 29 November and buy the book and craft with us.
