It's been a month already since we moved into our new and bigger shop, and we are still glowing from all the fantastic feedback from everyone. All the hard work has been SO worth it, with busy days and space for products we have always wanted to include.

The Slipstitch concession here is growing and settling in, becoming a source of selected yarns, Ricorumi, kits, books, handmade creations and basic haberdashery. 

The Muswell Hill Creatives have brought even more joys to our range - their section is a real treasure trove of lovingly-made gifts.

But anyway, what is the news?

Workshops & classes

In our Click & Collect Online Shop you will find a new section, Workshops & Classes. We are running a few classes for kids and several for adults between now and Christmas to see what works here and to test out our newly kitted-out workspace downstairs. We will be adding to the listings throughout this week, so keep checking back. 

You can also book places in the shop, and we will have information sheets for each class and gift vouchers available if you want to buy a place (or a contribution to one) as a gift.

To give you early notice as a newsletter subscriber, here's a sneak peek at the schedule (depending on demand).

In the New Year, we plan to extend what's on offer, adding drawing, knitting, embroidery, different print techniques, sewing and hopefully even more we haven't thought of yet!

Thanks for reading, we will be back soon(ish) with some news on our new suppliers, more details on specific classes and an upgrade to our voucher system.
