March Madness!!

1/4/2015

 
PictureOur stand at the incredible Edinburgh Yarn Festival. We can't wait to go back next year!
March proved to be the most astonishingly successful month for us. With three shows around the UK, we met literally thousands of people and had fantastic sales, ensuring we ended our third year of trading on a high point. A huge thank you to everyone who travelled to see us at Olympia, Edinburgh and Coventry, and for the lovely compliments and feedback on our products.

We're now back home, tired but full of enthusiasm, and planning for the next year - we already have lots of shows booked for the rest of 2015 and are thinking about new yarns, colours and designs for launch over the coming months.

To start with, we'll be having a major update in the webstore and adding lots of yarns that we've rarely had available outside the shows, as they get snapped up so quickly! This is particularly true for the baby camel/silk blends, and our new sparkle lace range. The merino/silk sparkle has virtually flown off the shelves, and we've just added a new alpaca/silk/cashmere version so expect that to be just as popular.

We've also decided to rest our standard laceweight and 4-ply merino yarns for the time being, so that we can concentrate on British wools. Our remaining stocks are being reduced by £1 per skein to clear.
