Welcome to The Knitting Shed, the natural habitat of Nicola and Louise, two sisters from a frugal make-it-yourself background.  Here you can peruse our carefully curated selection of original yarns, kits and patterns.  

We have our own hand dyed yarn range, Ainsworth & Prin with colours inspired by everything from the plants in our garden to an old tin shed on bases that can make every day a little more luxurious.
Also in the shop is our exciting new yarn, 'Heath' gorgeously soft, tweedy woolliness from Donegal and hardy Jamieson & Smith 2ply Jumper Weight for colourful heirloom knitting.

Recovering from a traumatic childhood dressed in a crochet trimmed pillowcase Nicola has designed the sweetest dress kits for you to make using Pima cotton and Liberty Print fabrics.  Or if you are planning a project for yourself we have original patterns and kits showcasing interesting knitting techniques for all skill levels.
