Knitwear and Yarn Sales in Time for Valentine's Day

Vila Chunky Knit Poncho at ASOS. (This item is listed as a "crochet knit." It is obviously knitted ;). In addition, it cannot be knitted and crocheted at the same time. I thought that was sort of funny. It is still adorable, and I would wear it in a heartbeat. It is not on sale, but it is only 34.50 GBP)

- "The concept of knitting in design brings the designer, and the wearer, back to the basics of garment construction and production. It enables us to dig deeper into our creative ways of thinking, thus creating better, more interesting works."
"I remember receiving a children's fashion designer kit from my grandparents, on my father's side, when I was about seven years old, which I loved. This small token of love helped harness my passion as a young girl. This is what started and sparked my first curiosities in the needle arts and craft."
