Article in Let's Knit

I just wanted to share the great news that I've been featured in the May issue of Let's Knit! They've also put together a giveaway of my products for one of their competitions and I'm very excited that a lucky participant will receive such a lovely set of knitting items, such as these:

KB Yarns Orient Mohair & Velvet

A set of 'Harem' sitch markers

A pair of one of these sets of handmade Iznik ceramic buttons

They're also including a pair of KB Marble Knitting Needles, and I'm really blown over by all the interest people have kindly shown toward KB Knitting as a result of reading about me in Let's Knit. Elaine, Assistant Editor from the magazine, did a great job and I'm now left a bit envious of the lucky people who get to work for knitting magazines...

Back to work!

The Stitch & Craft Show at Olympia was a great experience, although overwhelming by the sheer magnitude of paper crafts, supplies, and artists.


One of the highlights was meeting up with online friends from the knitting forum Knitting Haven. We all met each for the first time ever, even though we've been chatting online for years! They came from different corners of the UK and we all had dinner and drinks afterward.

Me, Kath, Liz and Kathryn

Scored a hit with visitors - 'Orient' and 'Sifa' yarns


The cotton 'Koza', handmade buttons and 'Harem' stitch markers.
