I trained as a Chartered Secretary (Companies Office and Stock Exchange compliance mostly) and was made redundant last year. I am a passionate knitter - knitting on and off all my life. I absolutely adore knitting yarns - textures, colours etc. I decided that one way to feed and fund my "habit" was to sell wool online so now I'm surrounded by it. I'm selling mostly fabulous Garnstudio yarns (silk, cotton, alpaca, pure new wool, merino, sock wools etc.) at very low prices and some yarns from Artesano and Craftspun (Irish). Also knitting needles (stainless steel circulars, very funky Drops plastic colured pointed needles, Brittany wooden pointed needles and some double pointed needles (wooden and metal) and accessories. I am also planning to give small knitting classes. There are thousands and thousands of free beautiful patterns available on the http://www.garnstudio.com website, generally accepted as the best source of free online patterns.
