Posh Yarns



Not to be confused with Posh Yarn, who hand dye yarn, Posh Yarns is a blog filled with knitting and sewing, as well as gorgeous pictures of ordinary life and travels about the UK.

One of the things we love about knitting is that it helps us to find the beauty in the small details, and in making sure the small details are right – that every cable is correctly crossed, every yarn over in its place – we can make something small, special. Hand knit socks, for example, turn an ordinary part of getting dressed into something which always makes us smile.

Posh Yarns is packed with these small things, with well thought out sandwiches and hand-made clothes, and is an inspiring place to stop and rest your eyes for a few minutes, particularly if you're eating your own lunch at your desk again.

Of course, there's also rather a lot of knitting, with – of course – some posh and some definitely unsual yarns, making this a great place to pick up new ideas and perhaps inspire you to cast on a new project. And we wouldn't ever say that's a small thing, although life does keep trying to make it seem so!

Read a great blog? Write a great blog? Tell us what it is and why you like it, and you might see it here next Friday.
