Baby Projects to Knit in Sandnes Garn Merinoull

Sandnes Garn Merinoull is the perfect yarn to use for baby and children’s knits. It’s made from 100% merino wool, considered by many as one of the softest animal fibres which makes it ideal for next-to-the-skin garments for delicate baby skin. It is also machine-washable which is a big bonus when it comes to baby knits as they need to be washed more frequently. I’ve mentioned it before on the blog (in fact I wrote a whole post about it which you can read here!) but small projects such as baby garments are such a great way to learn new techniques. They’re small and quick so you’re not committin ..read more

Two of my best friends from childhood (twins) used to wear these cardigans that had houses, sheep, a sun in the sky etc. – similar to the photo below – and I rememb ..read more

At the beginning of this year it was looking like we weren’t going to be able to restock Sandnes Garn Tykk Line due to supply issues. We were very sad as it was so popular last Summer – amongst both customers and staff, so we were over the moon when we could in fact order it in again! We wanted to get you all excited for it’s return too, so we’ve put together a list of newly released crochet patterns that we think would work wonderfully with Sandnes Garn Tykk Line. Plus we’ve got 6 new colours in the range – check them out here! Raglan V Crop by James Cummins We absolutely love the Raglan ..read more
