We have had a lot of new bits and pieces in lately, not all are on the website for various reasons. Lots of lovely new fabric from Rowan, including gorgeous Kaffe Fassett shot solids. That will be on the website soon.

We have most of the new Clothkits in stock. We try to have 1 of everything in the shop and although they’re not on the website we can take phone orders for them. I have just bagged myself a Rob Ryan skirt which I plan to make tonight. You might see it in the next photo of the window!

We have a large selection of Artist’s Pallette sock yarn and a bit of alpaca laceweight in stock. You can buy it directly from their website but our stock of it turns over so quickly and we love getting new colours from Juliet so we don’t have it on ours. We have roving in some fabulous colours and that just walks out of the shop almost as soon as it arrives!

To go with our expanding range of fabrics we can now order in sewing patterns from Simplicity, Burda and New Look. I am also making a great corduroy dress from our fabric which will be in the window soon. I seem to be overwhelmed with projects to finish for the shop!

I did manage to finish a Clothkitty doll last week. She was meant to be coming to live at the shop but my daughter fell in love with her and I couldn’t be that mean so I have a ginger one waiting to be made instead.

Also, we are selling some of our ex-display garments off. We have a few nice Rowan pieces, a couple of kids Colinette jumpers and a Rogue hoody which I knitted for myself but it isn’t my colour as it turns out. It was such a pleasure to knit that I can’t wait to knit it again. I never thought I’d say that…
