KnitBritish Episode 1:

Episode one of the first (the only?) podcast from KnitBritish

Knititis

I am suffering from two well known knitter’s ailments. I have had them separately, but they have compounded on me this time.

I’ve definitely got startitis and a bout of “I want to knit all the things!!!” I can’t help that so many beautiful patterns are catching my eye and being recently released!

Handmade in the UK

If it’s Tin Can Knits you know it’s going to be beautiful, stylish patterns, designed with a finger on the pulse of what knitters want to make AND wear! Add to that a collection designed entirely in British wool or by UK dyers and I feel like throwing a parade!

Knitting on the Threshold

This has been an exciting time for new knitting patterns from some of my favourite designers […] Since Karie Westermann began pre-sales of her first collection I had been drumming my fingers excitedly. On Monday it dropped into my Ravelry library.
