The King’s Birthday long weekend seems like the perfect time to dust off the teapot and bring out a Royal Crown Tea Cosy!

A quick reminder that Castle Handmade will be closed as usual on Sunday and Monday over the long weekend.

This gorgeous Bertie Baby Blanket by Little Doolally was made by one of our lovely customers using Morris & Sons Estate 8ply.

The colours are such a perfect match for this modern, playful design. Fresh, fun and full of personality, it’s the kind of blanket that will be loved for years to come.

Seeing your finished projects is one of the best parts of what I do—thank you for sharing this beautiful make with me.

Have you noticed the trend of adding embroidery to knitted and crocheted projects? It’s such a beautiful way to personalise your makes, adding flowers, motifs, details and texture long after the last stitch has been cast off.

To help inspire your next project, I’ve introduced DMC Eco Vita to the store. This beautiful embroidery wool is made from organic wool and coloured with natural dyes, making it a lovely choice for embellishing handmade garments, accessories and homewares.

I have individual skeins available if you’d like to try a few colours, as well as a stunning collector’s box containing 30 skeins for those who are ready to stitch to their heart’s content.

And if you’re looking for ideas, you’ll also find a growing collection of embroidery books in store, packed with inspiration and techniques to help you get started.

Who else is tempted to add a little stitching magic to their knitting or crochet?

Poema Mohair has arrived in store, and I think it's going to be hard to resist.

Soft, airy and beautifully light, this mohair/silk yarn creates a delicate halo with gentle, flowing colour shifts that do all the work for you. Whether you’re planning a simple shawl, a statement wrap, using it on its own or held together with another yarn for extra depth and texture, it’s the kind of fibre that makes you want to cast on straight away.

If you’ve been waiting for your next project… this might be it.

Some days remind me exactly why I do this.

Today the store was full of people choosing creativity. New faces discovering the joy of yarn crafts, regular visitors dropping in for a chat, projects being planned, colours being chosen and stories being shared.

After everyone had gone home and the shelves were restocked, the floor washed and the lights dimmed, I stood for a moment and looked around. I couldn’t help but feel grateful for this beautiful community that has grown around Castle Handmade.

Here are a few photos I took as I was leaving tonight. A quiet store after a wonderfully busy day.

A place for those who make.

Simple, sweet and only one ball!

This beautiful beret, ‘Beret – Simple and Sweet’by ConnieLene Johnston, is a free pattern and such a lovely way to enjoy the gorgeous Zealana Rimu yarn. Soft, warm and light to wear, it’s the perfect small project for cooler days.

Our sample was knitted by Sonya and doesn’t she wear it beautifully? You’ll find it in store now for a closer look.

Purchase a ball of Zealana Rimu and we’re happy to provide you with a free copy of the pattern — just ask in store or leave a note at online checkout.
