Curious Handmade with Helen Stewart
Show Sponsors Alongside an eclectic yarn range, which includes Hazel Knits, Icelandic Lopi & CoopKnits, we stock a carefully chosen selection of needles and notions. We’ve also recently launched ‘hand dyed by meadowyarn’, our very own in-house, hand-dyed yarn range. Working in our tiny dye studio, nestled in the Suffolk countryside, we are able to indulge our love of colour, producing complex tonal, kettle-dyed shades across a range of weights and bases. With regular updates our collections evolve and grow, inspired by the landscape and people around us. Find all your favourite luxury yarns and discover plenty more at A Yarn Story, Bath’s premier yarn store based in Walcot Street, Bath, UK. From gorgeous skeins by The Fibre Co and Walcot Yarns to a fine selection from Shibui Knits, La Bien Aimée, House of a la Mode, and Julie Asselin, there is plenty for the discerning knitter to enjoy. With friendly and knowledgeable staff to help you browse, there is plenty for the discerning knitter to enjoy. Visit the store at Walcot Street, Bath or shop online at www.ayarnstory.co.uk. On this week's episode we have TWO new patterns to celebrate! It's the end of the Knitvent mysteries for this year but it's not the end of the Knitvent fun and community! I also have news about a couple more upcoming patterns before the end of this year.

Can I just say what a gorgeous revamp of her website and rebrand has happened at A Yarn Story in the past week? If you haven't been following along on Instagram or visited the website recently, Carmen has done a gorgeous job. It's a gorgeous new logo. It's so professional and yet so warm and friendly and knitterly at the same time. I just love it. So congratulations, Carmen. I know what a big job that is. This week on the show we have lots of pattern release news and knit along news for you. I'll maybe have a little bit of a chat at the end about some future plans, but yeah, mostly it's about lots of new patterns at the moment. It's a super busy time of year. Happy Thanksgiving to all US listeners and knitters. I hope you're having a lovely weekend wherever you are. We're having a a busy festive weekend here. We're having a family Christmas party this weekend, a little bit early, so we'll be joining in the festivities. And yeah, it's just been one of those days. I've been set up my computer all day and I don't really know what I've been doing. Just lots of little bits of admin and you know when you have those days where you get to the end and you're like, "I don't really know what I did." So I thought I'd finish off with having a lovely chat with you and then I will have had something nice in the day that I can remember what I actually did. Last week again, I actually went to a craft market here on the Sunshine Coast, the Sunshine Coast Collective Markets,
