CRAFTYANGEL
Initially Craftyangel focused just on fabric, patterns and
haberdashery…until she came across ‘A Story in Yarn’ by Dee
Hardwicke and the rest as they say is history! Angela has gone on
to stock a wide range of yarns exclusively from Rowan including
the gorgeous and extremely popular Felted Tweed, Big Wool,
Cotton Cashmere, Kidsilk Haze and the beautiful Moordale,
but her personal (current) favourite is our Alpaca Classic. “I
absolutely loved the colour palette when I saw the range, and
without hesitation I purchased the whole palette! “said Angela.
It is Craftyangel’s ultimate dream to one day become a Rowan
flagship store.
Craftyangel also hosts a number of creative workshops for
fabric and yarn-based crafts. Classes for dressmaking, quilting,
free-motion embroidery and bag making have all been very
popular but Angela has recently seen a significant increase in
the number of people wanting to learn to crochet or brush up
on dusty yarn-based skills they once had. This has culminated
in Angela running the amazing ‘Homage to the Granny Square’
course taught by the extremely talented Sue Maton, who
travels to the store from Norfolk (where she lives) to teach the
class (See page 40 to learn more). Angela takes great care to
choose and use tutors who are experts in their field and who
are as passionate about sharing their skills in a thoughtful and
relaxing way.
Craftyangel is open online 24/7 and the shop is currently open
on Saturdays and Sundays from 10-4pm.
Angela adds, “I want everyone to experience the joy of
making something, whether it be the first time you’ve dared
to sit at a sewing machine, pick up a crochet hook or are
building on your knowledge and experience as a seasoned
sewer or knitter. There’s something here for everyone”
Whether you are sewing at home or spending time with
Craftyangel in one of the creative classes, workshops or social
sewing sessions - it’s about sharing and enjoying our passion -
go on and make something unique xx
