Who would have thought that Spring was going to turn nasty on us?

Aren’t we lucky we have been busy ‘Me Making’ woolly garments for ourselves all winter?

It’s so lovely being wrapped up in wool isn’t it?

Hats, scarves, mittens, sweaters, cardis, and now we’re hopefully heading into some warmer months 🤔 we might just start allowing ourselves to think of cotton & linen.

But not just yet! As I write this it’s bucketing down out there!

Pop in to our Community Knit on Saturday and have a look at our gorgeous cotton and linens. We’re in the studio 10 to 1pm.

Strut Your Stuff ‘26 tickets and raffles are available in the studio and via our website too.

Today our wee studio is open 10 to 12, then you’ll find us at Toitu 1 to 3pm.

Pop into either if you want to take part in one of our Community Knits.

What’s a Community Knit?

It’s a gathering of incredible creators, it’s a gaggle of yarnies yarning, fabulous conservation and much laughter, it’s a group who look out for each other, support and mentor each other. We don’t judge, we celebrate!

Whats our mutual connection? Wool of course!

For $5 or a donation, you can join us at any of our Community Knits we host during the week. Check out our website to find out where we meet & times.

What happens with the money we receive?

It helps pay for our studio coffees and a little bit helps us pay our utilities, but the majority heads into balls of wool for our Charity Knits.

So thank you. Every time you join us, we not only get to enjoy each others company, but we help clothe a little person in Otago.

We might also get to inspire a new knitter, a new garment, or create the first laugh out loud moment you’ve had all week. We are very aware that for some, we’re the only social outing they get to, and we are so proud to be able to make those moments happen 🧶❤️🧶

A Big Crofters Yarn Catch-up, come and join us!

Afternoon to our incredible Crofters Yarn Community. There's a fair bit happening around our Crofters Yarn world at the moment, so I thought it was time for a wee catch-up. Grab a cuppa, settle in, and let's get amongst it!

Strut your Stuff '26, this one is close to my heart!

One of the things I love most about Crofters Yarn is watching people grow in confidence, learn new skills, make beautiful things and discover that they're part of something special. And that's exactly what Strut your Stuff is all about!

It's our opportunity to celebrate our creativity, show off the things we've made, share our Charity Knits story, enjoy a fabulous afternoon tea and have a jolly good time together. We will have our Raffles available to purchase on the day to support our charity knitting, too, these will be drawn before you head home!

We've even got our Mayor and Deputy Mayor joining us, which is rather special. Lets celebrate our Crofters Community with them.

Here's where I need your help.

Our registrations are a little slower than we'd hoped, both for our Creators (those of you wanting to show off your wonderful creations) and our Celebrators (those who'd love to come along, cheer everyone on and enjoy the afternoon).

And honestly, we'd love to fill the room!

You don't need to have knitted something extraordinary. You don't need to be an expert. You don't even need to have been knitting for years. And remember when we talk ‘Knitting, we actually mean ALL woolly crafts’. You just need to come along and celebrate what happens when people get together, make things, encourage one another and share in a lot of joy.

So, if you've been thinking about coming, please don't leave it until the last minute. We'd love to have you there!

👇 Comment STRUT below and we'll send the registration link straight to your messages. Help us make this a day full of laughter, pride, friendship and a whole lot of woolly love.

Christmas at the Croft

Yes, it's that time of year when we start thinking about Christmas! Goodness me, where has this year gone?

We're gathering at The Village Green in Sunnyvale, on Sunday 29 November at 12 noon for Christmas at the Croft.

It'll be lovely to get our Crofters Yarn folk together and celebrate the year we've had. Want to join us?

👇 Comment CHRISTMAS and we'll send you the registration link.

Rocky Horror Picture Show, Let's Do The Time Warp!

Our Rocky Horror outing is coming up on Wednesday 4 November, with dinner at Nanking Palace from 5:30pm before the show.

We may have one seat available to onsell, so if you've been wishing you could join us, now's your chance! Fancy a night of fabulous fun with our crew?

👇 Comment ROCKY or send me a message, and we'll have a chat.

Fishnets are optional. A sense of humour is strongly recommended.

Persian Tiles, an email with quantities and costings is currently being pulled together.

Our Persian Tiles Crochet Journey is well underway in the planning department, and I'm so looking forward to seeing everyone's colour combinations and beautiful creations come together. We were wanting to send an email to those who responded recently, with the costs, kit information and all the other details you need. However we need a little bit more information from external sources before we can complete this.

We’ll let you know here when we have sent it out.

👇 Comment TILES if you need help finding more information, or message me directly.

I don't want anyone missing out because an email has decided to go awol!

One last little thing

If you've been expecting an email from me and haven't received it, please do get in touch after checking your spam folder. I'd much rather you let me know than miss something important.

At this time of the year Crofters = a whole lot of creating, celebrating, friendship, laughter and woolly adventures ahead of us.

Thank you for being part of our community. Thank you for the things you make, the time you give, the kindness you share and the way you support one another.

Crofters Yarn has always been about so much more than yarn. It's about our people. And we’d love to see as many of you as possible at these upcoming events.
