Summer Time & The Living is Easy

Its time to chill out with some summer knitting projects and relax in the warm weather
Is it just me who doesn't stop knitting during the summer?

I love nothing more than grabbing an hour in the sun with a knitting or crochet project and a big glass of something chilled and my audio book.
Whether its socks - the perfect lightweight go to for even the warmest knitting weather (have you tried knitting with cotton sock yarn?) or a super simply linen or bamboo top to wear later in the summer, we have you covered
To make this summer even easier we've some cheeky sale options for you, click on the pictures to take you directly to the products and grab yours before they are gone - forget stash busting - stash filling at bargain prices is the order of the day. These lovely products are little jewels of yarns that are completely are beautiful, perfect for summer garments and projects and all round good doers!
Rico Superba Twirl 4 Ply is a colourful sock yarn, which knits up into a glorious gradient of striking colours. Presented in a space-saving ball shape, this 4 ply yarn is a superwash blend of 75% wool and 25% polyamide (nylon), giving it a durability for sock making, but which is stunningly versatile, perfect for any project in the 4ply bracket.
BC Garn Summer in Kashmir
This eco-yarn a popular yarn throughout the year, for all climates, for indoor and outdoor use, and for both large and small. The small amount of cashmere adds a delicate “fluff” to the yarn, which you can see as you hold the yarn up against the light. However, the yarn is generally not “fluffy-hairy”, so it is also very suitable for baby clothes – in this connection it is important to also highlight that the yarn can be machine washed.
BC Garn Semilla Cable
SEMILLA CABLÉ is 100% organic wool, GOTS certified and soft wash treated (chlorine free) for easy care. The chainette spinning process adds stability to it and makes it the perfect yarn for both children’s and adult’s knitwear and accessories. We have made some superb sweaters in this yarn but think it would be great for a lightweight Sophie scarf or other summer time knits!
