Having wanted to write a straight forward top-down jumper pattern for quite some time, I had no idea quite how long it was going to take… In fact when I edited the images of the various stages I realise that I started the first sample in April last year...
We are in unprecedented times right now and nobody really knows how the next few weeks/months will pan out. As well as the yarn discounts below, but I just wanted to reassure everyone of a few things: Whilst I am well and am permitted to, I will continue to ship...
I am really excited to have been chosen to be a featured UK FibreShare vendor in the first 2020 yarn swap. If you haven’t taken part in FibreShare before, or are unsure what they are, then head over to their website where you can read all about it and sign up!...
So, my first Ōilyarns Club packages went out this week and I’ll admit to being more than a little bit nervous. I wanted to make them extra special to show my thanks for people who had supported and believed in me from the start. I waited until 1st November...
