Hey Iā€™m from Greater Manchester and Iā€™ve been knitting on and off for a few years now but still know very little.

Hi, I joined on here years ago and havenā€™t done any knitting for a few years, Iā€™ve just started up again. Iā€™m still a newbie really. Iā€™m 30 and I am also in South Yorkshire, originally from West Yorkshire lol. :slight_smile:

Iā€™m in South Wales and taught myself to knit last yearā€¦wish Iā€™d found this forum back then!!

Hello, Iā€™m from Oxford UK

Hi
Iā€™m new to both the site and knitting (well I did some as a kid but nothing for many years and had no idea what I was doing!)

I live in Croydon, south London.

Weā€™ve got a Hobbycraft just down the road from us which seems to have a great choice of wool although I have no idea if its good quality or not!

Hello All - Donā€™t know if this counts but Iā€™m originally from England but now live in Michigan in the US!

To Michelle re Hobby craft - I looked at their website and saw they carry Regia yarn which I believe is a good brand, they also have Patons too. I suppose it depends on your experience level and what you want to make. Iā€™ve bought the majority of my sock wool from very similar stores in the US and have been very happy with the brands and the selection. Maybe one day Iā€™ll work my way up to using hand spun and hand dyed expensive yarn, but Iā€™m not ready for that yet!

Hi Iā€™m in Wales. Iā€™m new to knitting so far Iā€™ve only made a scarf purely with knit stitches and a dishcloth with K, K2tog, Sl, YO, Kf&b. Iā€™m enjoying it immensely but Iā€™ve just bought some yarn called Patonā€™s Fab Big and Iā€™m trying to do the scarf pattern on the label and failing miserably. If anybody can help I would really appreciate it, Iā€™m going to post my question into the How to section if you wouldnā€™t mind taking a look?
