Do your non-crafty chums know how lucky they are?
You’ll never be cold again…ever…
Feeling the chill? Fear not dear heart, allow us to just whip you up a cosy hat - would you like a beanie, beret, chullo or cloche? - or how about a nice pair of mittens - flip top or regular? Maybe you’d prefer gloves? Don’t worry about numb toes, we can make socks, legwarmers, slippers - or all three for those really extreme winters. Have you got a chunky jumper, no? We’ll make that too. And cardies… and throws… and a hot water bottle cover…
We are British tea heroes
At the risk of living up to national stereotypes, here at LK HQ we can’t abide cold tea. That’s why teacosies and mug warmers are an essential part of our knitty repertoire. We can make personalised cosies for everyone you know so they don’t have to suffer in silence… all you have to do is ask!
We have all your birthdays and Christmases covered
When you can’t find what you want in the shops, who you gonna call? A knitter, of course! Handknitted accessories, gadget cosies, toys, baby items and homewares all made brilliant presents for friends or family. We’re more than happy to accept commissions so you can give someone special a truly unique gift. We can even personalise it by making it in their favourite colour, pattern or even embroidering their name for you – talk about brownie points for you!
You’ll never be short of tying materials
Need to hang your washing, tie up a package, train your runner beans or hold up your trousers when your belt breaks? Yarn can do it all – and where can you find a ready supply of yarn? Cooee, over here! * cue frantic waving *
We’ll stop you from hoarding
We knitters are a selfless bunch. By filling all the crevices in the house with yarn, we’ll make sure you can lead a feng shui-friendly minimalist lifestyle when it comes to your own belongings. Think about it, if you don’t have anywhere to put it, should you really be keeping it? Hmmm?
We can help reduce your stress levels
Sit opposite us when we’re knitting and watch our fingers when we’re in full flow. That rhythmic moving of needles and yarn can be soothing and hypnotic. Focus on us working and empty your mind from all other thoughts. It’s almost like meditation – and you never know, it might make you want to give it a go yourself!
You’ll win the sheep anagram round on Pointless
‘Name That Sheep’ is a knitter’s favourite travel game and you’re bound to have subconsciously absorbed quite a lot of sheepy knowledge, even if you’re not up to identifying them yourself. When Alexander Armstrong reveals that board featuring “Newly sealed” or “Dry lane” you’ll find yourself answering “Wensleydale” and “Ryeland” before you know it.
