Addi circular knitting needles at a bargain price

I have started up-dating the KnitKits website and have some addi premium circular needles at the bargain price of £4.00 a set and with FREE postage to the UK. CLICK HERE to order.
I have also set myself a target to finish a design for a new knitting kit every two days, which means plenty of time watching Wimbledon while I knit up the samples! Finally finished the smocked jacket I was knitting at the Chateau and this will be available to order from today either as a knitting kit or PDF pattern. ORDER HERE

Addi Circular needles

I have just received a delivery of Addi circulars in 120cm and 150cm lengths and some more teddy needle huggers.
Rebuilding the website is going reasonably well, but have hit a bit of a wall today. It is time to stock check the buttons and get them back up on the site, but having just finished a stock check the day before the server crashed this is a depressing thought as it means counting every single button again and there are well over 5000.................

Addi circular needles

I have more Addi's arriving tomorrow including longer cords in the circular needles. Some of the sizes are now available with 120cm (48 in) and 150cm (60 in) cords, also 2mm Addi lace circulars now available.

Addi Lace Clicks

We have just received our first delivery of Addi Lace Click sets. These are the ultimate luxury in knitting needles, a set of 8 nickel plated needle tips ranging in size from 3.50mm - 8mm with 5 red Addi cords measuring 40cm, 50cm, 60cm, 80cm and 100cm. The whole lot is neatly packaged in a leather case with a zip pocket for the cords - what more could you want in your Christmas stocking! ORDER HERE

When did you start knitting? I've been knitting for ever and I've never stopped
What has been your favourite project? Definitely my 'coat of many colours' which I did before I came to Kangaroo. It was knitted in Log Cabin patchwork. I like it because I am really into the construction of the garments and the technical side of knitting.
Favourite yarn? Anything expensive - especially silk! I also like the Fleece Artist and Hand Maiden yarns - they are such beautiful colours and each skein is slightly different, which makes it interesting to knit with.
What have you just completed? I've just finished a shawl in Crystal Palace Mini Mochi (Strawberry and Lime). In fact, I ended up doing it twice as I didn't like the first pattern - I changed it to the Forest Canopy Shawl which I got from Ravelry. It has beads and has turned out really nicely. I did find the Mini Mochi a bit stick to work with though.
What is your current project? I'm knitting a Silken Smoke Ring using Rowan Pure Silk DK. It's a pattern I downloaded from the internet by Angela Ho and Flora Young - a sort of cowl.
Favourite needles? KnitPro for straights and Addi Turbos and Addi Lace needles for circulars.
Why do you knit? My kids think I'm obsessed, but if I didn't knit I think I'd go ever so slightly mad! I'm very determined despite my limited vision (I'm registered as partially sighted) and will tackle anything, however complicated. The only thing that limits me a bit are the very dark yarns, but otherwise the world is my oyster!

Addi's!

At last we are managing to rebuild our stock of Addi needles. The change over to a new UK distributor has caused big delays on deliveries but they are now starting to filter through. We have just received a big delivery and have more of the Addi Click sets in stock and will be taking the full range to the Knitting and Stitching Exhibition at Ally Pally.
