AT ROWA N AT OSPREY HOME We are delighted to announce our new store, ROWAN at OSPREY HOME, is now open. This is the story so far... Rowan Yarns at Liberty has been a key part of the Rowan brand for over 35 years, and for the last three years the home of our global flagship. We are extremely proud of our long-standing relationship with this iconic brand, and it was a truly fitting place for us to launch the Rowan Flagship programme. In order for us to continue to nurture and develop our global flagship offer, the time has come for us to seek pastures new so that we can further enhance the Rowan experience. We are delighted to announce that we have been invited by British lifestyle & accessories brand OSPREY LONDON to create a new home for Rowan at their amazing brand location called OSPREY HOME, just outside St Albans. With its stores and a café in a pretty courtyard setting, the picturesque OSPREY HOME rural location is the perfect fit with Rowan and is sure to delight Rowan knitters too. The Rowan team very excitedly set about planning a space where a true brand experience can be had–a comprehensive showcase of the Rowan yarns and collections, designer focuses, inspirational displays, events and a dedicated workshop space. After a week spent moving in, we opened our doors at OSPREY HOME on the 1st September and are delighted with the results! Just a short drive or taxi ride from St Albans train station and not far from both the M1 and A1, OSPREY HOME is served by good transport links. Regular trains from London St Pancras to St Albans take approx. 35 minutes and so it’s a perfect destination for a great day out. Did we mention that not only is the shopping amazing, but the sweet and savoury treats served at the Saddlery Café are worth the trip alone! A full schedule of workshops and classes is available and we have set up a regular Knitting Club which will be held on Wednesday mornings! The relaxed knitting group will meet 10.30-12.30. Expert advice will be on hand as well as a chance to see Rowan’s new yarns and designs for Autumn Winter and of course there’s the Saddlery Café just next door. Follow us on Facebook and Instagram over the next few weeks whilst we continue to bring this new space to life and don’t forget that Central London will continue to be a Rowan Flagship destination too with John Lewis Oxford Street flying the London flag.
