Yarny Christmas

We are now in the thick of the holidays, and last night was spent outfitting the button eaters in their Christmas jumpers, wrapping presents and decorating our dainty tree. With my Christmas Day dress all knit and blocked, I am feeling like I can actually start to enjoy the seasonality of it all.





















Now if you are feeling a bit panicky on your preparation level, and are in need of some yarn related assistance, GTS can assist.  Gift vouchers for GTS are available in £5 increments, if you are looking for a gift for another crafter or yarn appreciator. These can be used on yarn, patterns AND workshops.

WoolyKnit Lofty

Or if you are looking at actually making a gift (and time is short) go for a chunky accessory. Woolyknit's Lofty is a soft bulky yarn (80% super soft merino & 20%    nylon).




I've recently made the Smock-Top Jacket by GTS' Designer of the Month, Kristen Orme. The chunkiness of the wool made this a quick project, and only took 4 balls. You could easily make a unique and original hat or cowl out of a ball or 2.

Last on the agenda are GTS' holiday hours:

So here is hoping the holidays allow everyone the opportunity to be merry and the time to craft! 

Have yourself a knitty little Christmas!
