Peggy May Yarns was created in dedication to my late Grandmother who was called Peggy May. Growing up she taught me how to knit at around the age of 5 years old. I then taught her to crochet when I was older, as I had learnt from some books from the library.
I became self employed in 2010 and was submerged into the yarn community. I have won several awards, two of my most prominent ones are Small Business Sunday #SBS with Theo Paphitis and Women on Wednesday #WOW from Jacqueline Gold CBE.
I have designed knitting patterns and even featured at Norwich Fashion Week many years ago. I even had a YouTube podcast at one point but nerves got the better of me and I stopped podcasting. You never know I may start again one day if enough people encourage me to do so.
I love creating the famous yarn boxes and love putting them all together, from the yarn to the items I source to be added to whatever theme it is.
I am so grateful for everyone that orders from me, I am a small business and as Im sure you all realise that every sale really does mean the world to me.
I am always happy to take suggestions for colourways, boxes and even more knitting patterns to design. So, please feel free to get in touch with any suggestions.
I love the fibre community in general and they all made me feel so welcome, especially after tough times I have had. I am going to be offering a special yarn soon in memory of my great niece who was only six months old when she died end of 2019. I designed a yarn then too and I was overwhelmed by the support from you all, so once again Thank you.
