All very continental at A Good Yarn today! Sirdar have new pattons, 'Petit Breton' in the blue, white and red colours. A splash of British influence with a rich cream called 'Rice Pud'. Knitting up nice and quick - ideal for evening on the beach or early autumn.

I’m back! 🇭🇷✨

I have just spent the most amazing week in the beautiful town of Medulin, Croatia! While I was there, I even got to visit the incredible ancient amphitheatre in nearby P**a (check out the photo!). It is the most intact amphitheater outside of Rome, it was absolutely amazing!

But, now it is back to reality; after a busy weekend of catching up on laundry and shopping, I am officially back at A Good Yarn today and spinning my wheels to catch up on everything else! 🧶I am so sorry if I missed any of your messages while I was away. Thank you so much for your patience, and I will be getting back to everyone over the next couple of days!

Something truly special has arrived at A Good Yarn.

The wonderful Twinkly Knits has hand‑painted a brand‑new colourway inspired by our shop — and it’s every bit as magical as you’d imagine.

Available in merino DK and 4ply, this yarn is a joy to knit or crochet with. I've got the 4ply lined up for my first pair of socks!!

Feeling very proud and very excited to share it with you.
