Local Yarn Shop scoops award at the Knitting BAFTAs!

Soaring inflation rates are affecting the high street massively, along with rising energy &amp; fuel costs people are ditching the high street and shopping online. We've seen a huge rise in costs of the yarns that we are buying (upto 15%) and postal charges have risen too. We are trying to absorb costs wherever we can, but we have to keep the lights on &amp; door open in order to sell our wares! As an established yarn store, we sell a variety of hand knitting (and crochet) yarns, with much of our stock being British natural fibres &amp; we encourage makers to use and make garments to last rather than buying cheap fast fashion items which will end up in landfill. Like everyone else, we are concerned as to what the future holds but continue to service our crafting community as we also understand the benefits to mental health that crafting can bring (especially in these times).<blockquote>Like everyone else, we are concerned as to what the future holds but continue to service our crafting community as we also understand the benefits to mental health that crafting can bring (especially in these times).</blockquote>
