🐞🐞🐞It's Yarn Market Night this evening.🐞🐞🐞

Join us live on Facebook this evening from 7pm for a special Wednesday night edition of our popular Market Night.

We'll be sharing yarn, knitting patterns, crochet patterns, tools, notions and plenty of tempting additions to your stash.

If you've never joined us before, don't worry. It's easy to take part and we'll explain everything at the start of the live.

A little tip from us: be quick when claiming items. Popular lots can be snapped up in seconds, so have your fingers ready.

Please listen carefully as we announce the winner of each lot during the live. Facebook doesn't always display comments at exactly the same speed for everyone watching at home, so the comments you see on your screen may not always match the order we see in the shop. We'll always confirm who secured each item as we go along.

🐞 Tiny hooks, tiny stitches, HUGE creativity! 🐞

We’re so excited to welcome the wonderful Steffi Glaves back to Bugweed’s for the second workshop in her brilliant Micro Crochet series!

This time it’s all about creating beautiful granny square jewellery using teeny tiny crochet techniques and delicate sterling silver findings. Steffi will guide you through the process step-by-step, sharing clever tips for mastering the magic ring and reducing all those pesky ends to sew in.

Using a 0.9mm hook (or experimenting with different sizes if you fancy!), you’ll leave with:
✨ A gorgeous handmade pair of earrings
✨ New micro crochet skills
✨ Plenty of inspiration to keep creating at home

Suitable for advanced beginners who already know basic crochet stitches including chains, double crochet, and treble crochet.

Thread and refreshments are included — just bring your hooks, your glasses if needed, and plenty of enthusiasm! 🐞
