Knitting

Am hooked, oh dear...
does anybody know of a good wool shop in the midlands? It seems to be impossible to buy wool and fabric now. More and more people are making things for themselves and more and more businesses seem to be closing, I don't understand it.
*thanksxxx

Www.knittersandsewersworld.com .

this is a very good site, you can spend hours on it!
I agree with annie, I'm very glad it's come back in fahsion, lovely to see young people doing something with their hands as well.

Knitting wool!

I found a site for "sirdar" wool, I think you can buy it through the net. Try www.sidar.co.uk
I will try and find it again and let you know.
A search on the web for knitting wool suppliers will give you some sites to try and they will tell you anywhere locally to you.
All the best!

God, i love knitting!

People do it on the tube here, it's really cool!
I'm knitting a throw at the moment, with mohair, wool an cotton yarns, the mix of textures is beautiful.

What are you all workign on?

I love knitting too

been knitting since I was a kid. So glad that it's gaining popularity as now I can knit out in the open e.g buses, waiting rooms, work.
have several projects on the go but all have been postponed as am currently filling orders for eyelash scarves even tho it's spring! the worlds gone mad for them and am currently on scarf no21! loved to get back to some real knitting tho. this would include a minicable cardiand a Duet wool twolayer summer top I'm doing for my 12 year old daughter.

I like that idea!

Where did you see the pattern for the throw, or are you making it to your own pattern? I would interested in making one of those.

I really want to start

...but my mum's not a knitter to teach me!
Any advice? Do people do knitting lessons? Don't want to end up with loads of old women looking down their noses because I don't know what I'm doin!

... I just found it, it might be some help, but it's better to get someone to show you in person!

Shipston on stour

If you live anywhere near Shipston on Stour, (South Warwickshire, south of Stratford), there is a fabulous wool shop there, called, I think Shipston Wool Shop. If you stand in the main square facing the pub, it is down the little road to the right.

She had absolutely everything you would need, needles, markers etc and an enormous range of wools and patterns, not just the usual old lady knits.

really inspiring...

Thanks

I live near Worcester, but will def travel down, it sounds great!
