Newsflash |
This page coincides with the current knitting revival, which sees the
craft booming in popularity and even experiencing celebrity status with
many of Hollywood's superstars, both male and female, turning to
knitting needles in their spare time. Hailed as the new yoga, knitting
is perfect to combat stressful urban lifestyles and helps us to return
to simplicity.
