Hello! 👋 We’ve had quite a few new followers recently and with the #yarnlovechallenge starting today we thought it might be a nice way to introduce ourselves again! Day 1: Intro! We are (l-r) @porpoise_fur (Rachel) and @champagneandqiviut (Alli) and together we create and host yarn-centric events in and around London and sometimes the wider UK. 🇬🇧 We also love visiting yarn shows and meeting awesome makers - then sharing those finds on our podcast or hosting those makers at our #Yarnporium. We also put together the annual Great London Yarn Crawl which is a fantastic day out in September every year. If you’re not able to join us in London when we have an event on, we also host a weekly Stitch Night in SW London near to Clapham Junction, and we’ve published a couple of books on where to find the best yarn shops in the city! If you’d like to know more about our events, click the link in our profile to sign up for our newsletter or download our podcast from our website or on iTunes. 😊 #yarnlovechallenge2019 #yitcmakehappy #yitcyarnadventures #yarnporium2018 #makersofinstagram

One last post before everyone scatters for Christmas. We’ve joined @rosygreenwool and @mairlynd in their campaign to support the Against Malaria Foundation @againstmalaria. If you’re making any charitable donations this holiday season or if you still have a little extra to give, we’d love to encourage you to support this fundraiser. Wishing each and every one of you and yours the best this holiday. #knittersagainstmalaria
