#MarrinerInBloom winner

The weather certainly didn’t get the memo this month, but we wanted to mark the month of spring’s arrival with a suitably spring-y theme! We asked for anything and everything floral and flowery to help banish those winter chills for good – at least in our minds anyway…

Without further ado…

The weather may not have got the memo, but spring is officially here! We have certainly had enough of snow getting in the way and are fairly sure it’s illegal to be this cold in the UK so close to April…

Despite the weather, we are looking ahead to blue skies and sunshine and thinking about what we can create with the beautiful spring shades we have swimming around in our heads. We’re fancying a cotton-look sleeveless top, a cute cardigan for the kiddies and maybe a new colourful jumper to see us through until this cold spell disappears. We’re all about using our bright, bold and beautiful colours to make us feel like spring (and dare we mention summer?) is on the way.

Take a look at our top choices for your spring palette.

Posted in Crochet, Knitting, Knitting & Stitching Show

As many of you may know, Marriner Yarns made the trek to London through the snow, on the last day of February, ready to welcome our customers to The Spring Knitting and Stitching Show at Olympia. We made it to the centre before the Beast from the East struck in full force and were able to set up and get everything ready as planned.

We know that not everyone was able to make it to the show, be it because of the weather, distance, or just general life activities taking priority, so we thought we would share some lovely moments…

With January finally over, it seemed only right to take advantage of Valentine’s day and use the month of February to celebrate love. Whether that was love hearts galore, or a hat…

As December ended and the joy and frivolity of the festive season fizzled out, we decided that the best to see us through the longest (we’re sure January secretly has 64 days!) month of…

The Magic Mindfulness of Knitting and Crochet

Posted in Crochet, Knitting, Made with Marriners, Mindfulness

Over the last few years, mindfulness has become a much sought-after practice and concept. Colouring books, apps, activity books, and thoughtful exercises have all become increasingly popular in our effort to escape our busy lives. With work commitments, social engagements, family responsibilities, general housekeeping tasks – not to mention finding time for yourself – it’s no wonder that more and more people are seeking out ways to calm their minds and think more about the present moment.

Mindfulness has become the modern-day ‘meditation’. For a lot of people, it is…
