After the huge success of our SnB at the IFI Café Bar, Dublin Knitwork wishes to  announce that the opportunity has arisen to have a monthly social at the IFI Café Bar and I’ve seized this opportunity to make it our regular city centre venue for the forseeable future. Most importantly is that we will have exclusive use of the mezzanine. So, the next social will be in celebration of Samháin on Saturday 28 October, 1230pm to 4pm. It will be a ticketed event going forward as the feedback I have received is that people like the  idea of food being provided.  To be clear, there is n ..read more

When I heard that my LYS were taking pre-orders for Ready Set Socks by Rachel Coopey, I jumped outta my shoes and submitted my order. When I received the book, I quickly flicked through it.
