Knit Together!

In association with the Keep Yarn on our Streets campaign

Hello and welcome to a brand new year! And what a warm welcome 2021 brings. As the days slowly begin to get lighter, we can start dreaming of pretty pastels, spring knits and (hopefully) reclaiming the great outdoors. In the meantime, to keep your knitting inspiration flowing we bring you the best yarn shops in Devon, find out about a brilliant knitting group, Bramley Knits, and chat to fab retailer – Baa! Can we tempt you to cast on a colourful cowl for charity? You’ll find it on page 72. Or perhaps you’re keen to hear all about the upcoming Big Knit campaign – it’s planned to be bigger and better than ever before! Plus, this issue you can cast on an Easter knit for Francis Children’s Hospice on page 73 and hear about Julie Colquitt’s upcoming projects at Yarn Yarn. Don’t forget, if you have any charity or community news, please drop us a line. We can’t wait to hear from you! Until next time…

SAY HELLO!

SEND PHOTOS OF YOUR CHARITY KNITS TO US AT Knit Together, Simply Knitting magazine, Immediate Media, Eagle House, Bristol BS1 4ST.
