Loop Knitting Lounge


Some excellent news for all yarn crazy folk is breaking!! Stop the press - Loop Knitting is moving!!
As many of you already know, Loop is a mecca for all knitters and crocheters both in the UK and from very (we're talking global) far afield. Susan Cropper, who owns this wonder of the London craft scene, has created a unique destination shop for everything you could possibly want to create your own beautiful piece of knitwear. From classes to 4-ply, haberdashery to silken thread, it's all there and now it's expanding and moving lock, stock up the road to 15 Camden Passage, conveniently located a mere stone's throw from Angel tube station and any number of buses to whisk you there and back again barely lifting your groaning bag of goodies.
In addition to all of this there is now more ways than one to get into the Loop vibe from Twitter, Facebook and Loop's very own blog, LoopKnitLounge! Chaincreative welcomes Loop to the world of blogging and will definitely be rushing hot-foot to the new store, opening on Saturday 12 June.

Thank you for the Loop alert. I know Camden Passage from many visits to London, but admit that I only know of Loop via its website and mentions in the wonderful Selvedge magazine.

Their new location should be wonderful.

It's a bit of a coincidence that our NYC four-letter word yarn and fabric haven, Purl, has also just moved a few blocks within its SOHO neighborhood to Broome St. I think that these fabulous shops will be even better in their newest digs.
