Is there any? Or is it best to go to a shop?

My faves are Kangaroo
Sue Pearce and her team are so helpful.

My experience as a comparatively recent knitting returnee is that it helps to have been to a shop stocking the ranges you like the look of, once or twice, before ordering online with confidence.

I finally took up the bamboo knitting needle gauntlet recently by buying from John Lewis, but now I know what to expect it'll be back to Sue in Lewes again!

me too, especially the way they gently curve when you've used them for a bit. have a massive Big Wool crochet hook now too and made a flower big enough to be a comedy hat for dd2

She'll run away from home one of these says. Comedy hat ? Whatever happened to respecting toddlers and not dressing them up for parental amusement?
