Yarn Shop Premium

We’ve recently spent thousands of pounds redesigning and updating the UK Hand Knitting website. It was already the country’s most used website for finding a local yarn shop.

And now it’s even better
So join as a premium yarn shop and enjoy a comprehensive listing. Not only does this include your business name, address and contact details but you can add the services you offer, details of your craft groups, opening times, even a photograph and a direct link to your website.

Why become a premium subscriber?

More help is available
You can also access our extensive Resource Centre. We cover everything from how to build a website and improve SEO (search engine optimisation) to window dressing, stock control, running a workshop, setting up a newsletter, accounts, insurance, VAT, and much more.

Support from major craft publications
We have also secured a fantastic amount of support from all the major knitting and crochet magazines. Under the UK Hand Knitting banner they promote only independent yarn and craft stores in editorial, sponsorship and advertising. By joining UK Hand Knitting you can benefit from that substantial investment.

Take part in our events
We organise two nationwide events each year created to drive consumers in stores, and which only our premium yarn shops can take part in; The Great British Yarn Crawl in the spring and Yarnstravaganza in the autumn.

Supporting yarn shops
UK Hand Knitting was founded in 1940 as a not-for-profit organisation to promote the craft of knitting and crochet. Today we are focussed on supporting yarn shops and you can be part of that initiative. The UK Hand Knitting logo is the new seal of approval for independent yarn and craft shops.
