This past month, Mrs. Knotty spent a week down in the Cape region to take care of some family matters before returning back to Pretoria. She dived head long into dyeing yarn because stock was terribly low with a market coming up on 28 August. The Stoep Mark is happening again on 25 September so come say hello!
In between all the busy rushing to get things done, Mrs. and Mr. Knotty became first time grandparents too! Mr. Knotty joked he went to bed next to his wife and woke up next to a granny as if he wasn’t a grandpa himself… The new Knotty family member arrived in America in the early hours of Tuesday, 24 August – a healthy little girl with all ten fingers and ten toes, ready to learn to knit!
Knotty Yarn Klub Q3
We are gearing up to send out the Q3 boxes for the Yarn Klub mid-September. Here is a tiny sneak peek of the Ietsie Klein gift included to wet your appetite so long! It’s not too late to sign up for either the Q3 KYSO Klub or the Q4 box for both clubs!
Knotty Zipper Bags
Here is another newsletter exclusive for you! The first look at the new Knotty Zipper Bags we will be launching mid-September!
These bags are made with the same materials as our current project bags and knotion baggies, but they include a handy zipper to keep your projects safe. Keep an eye on social media for when they launch!
All About Accessories
Our home page got a refresher since it’s just about Spring time! Our focus this time around is squarely on accessories – from nostepinne to shawl pins to pom poms, we have a wide range to feast your eyes on!
The Knott-Knitters work as needle protectors and knitting keepers all in one. You simply slip the needles into the appropriate sized leather tag, with the bend in the leather keeping the tag on the needles securely.

We have been receiving more and more international orders and as such included our origin on our new labels! Keep an eye out for the “South African” addition with your next purchase!
Please remember to submit your Kreations to us in order to stand a chance to win a Knotty Habit mug every month!
In closing, we would like to take a moment to highlight one of our Knotty Friends – Adele Marais. Check out her fantastic podcast here to see her finished projects, new cast ons and even pick up a few tips and tricks along the way from a master knitter!
With lots of Knotty love,
The Knotty Team
