Today it is raining .. again. But yesterday was sunny enough to leave the shop door open. A little hint of spring that really lifted the mood.

On days like today, with so much uncertainty in the world, I’m reminded why community matters so much. Grateful we had our mutual aid knitting circle this morning to slow down, be together, and hold space for each other.

Kat and volunteers come together to knit, crochet, mend, and embroider at the Rogers Park campaign office.

I've been taking my own advice recently and getting on with my knitting rather than looking at social media. If you are doing the same maybe pop our January playlist on in the background and give yourself a little space from the noise of the world: #knitsky www.flockworkshop.uk/journal/floc...

One of our new heroes is the wonderful musician Jim Ghedi. Here's a great episode of 'Folk on Foot' talking with him about his music and the landscapes and social history of Sheffield and the Peak District. Perfect to listen to while knitting: pocketcasts.com/podcast/folk...

As we are currently are unable to ship to the USA we would love to hear about any small producers in the States that are making great breed specific yarn, especially small flocks. We'd like to spread the word to our US customers and learn about them ourselves. 🇺🇸🐑🇬🇧

Like many small businesses in the UK we have made the difficult decision to stop shipping to the USA from Monday 18th August, due to the trade tariffs and the removal of the ‘de minimis’ exemption. We’re really gutted about this & we hope that it will only be a temporary pause. #knitsky #tariffs
