Machine repairs

Please note that our machine repair man is having a holiday for most of August. He already has enough machines to go on with till he leaves town so PLEASE don’t bring in your machines for service/repair until late August as we don’t have room to store them. Thankyou!

Knitted Bears

Ryman Healthcare, which owns the Rita Angus Retirement Village over the road from us, has set a goal of donating 200 knitted teddy bears to Ukrainian children - and they need help!

They’ve given me a pattern that I can share if you would like to knit a teddy or 2 and they would be happy to receive donations of wool – which you can leave at the shop. They would like to make some in Ukrainian colours – blue and yellow – but that’s not compulsory. Video guides and more information can be found here.

Sale wool!

Our big 100 gram, 202metre, balls of Ashford DK(8ply) 100% NZ wool are now reduced from $11.50 to just $10. We have 210 balls in 27 colours. Lovely wool at a bargain price!

Once this is all gone we will be getting in a new Ashford DK line.

We hope you all stay warm and healthy,

Jo and the crew- Jess, Robyn, Toni, Annie and Vincent
