💕🧶 A Little Note from Miensie 🧶💕

It's me... Miensie. Or Mrs Knotty. Or Miens. Or Mamma. 😊

Today, I simply want to say thank you.

Thank you to every person who has supported Knotty Habit over the years. Whether you've bought a skein of yarn, joined a knit night, stopped by our stall at a market, shared a post, or simply cheered us on from the sidelines — you have helped make this little dream possible.

I am continually humbled by the love, kindness and friendships that have grown from this business. What started as a passion for yarn has become a community, and for that I am deeply grateful.

Something many people don't realise is that when you support Knotty Habit, you're supporting so many other businesses too. We make a conscious effort to work with local South African suppliers wherever possible, and around 95% of the businesses we use are proudly South African.

Just think about it...

🧶 Our yarn
🎨 Our dyes
👜 Our leather products
🧵 Our project bags
📦 Our boxes and packaging
🏷️ Our labels
🖨️ Our printers
🚚 Our couriers
💜 And the hands and hearts behind it all

Almost every part of our business supports another local business, family or entrepreneur.

So when you choose Knotty Habit, you're helping to create a ripple effect that reaches far beyond a single skein of yarn.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for being part of our story.

With love and gratitude,

Miensie❤️

💛🌼 Colour Inspiration: Canola 🌼💛

Soft, buttery yellows continue to shine as one of the biggest colour trends for Winter 2026. Warm, cheerful and effortlessly elegant, this gentle shade brings a touch of sunshine to even the coldest days.

Our Canola colourway on our luxurious 3 Ply DK 100% Merino base captures this trend perfectly. Inspired by fields of golden blooms, it pairs beautifully with soft greys, muted blues and creamy neutrals for timeless knitwear and crochet projects.

Whether you're casting on a cosy shawl, a lightweight jersey or your next heirloom project, Canola is a colour you'll reach for again and again.

✨ Soft. Sophisticated. On trend.

What would you make with Canola?

🧶💜 Thank You for Your Generosity 💜🧶

A sincere thank you to everyone who donated yarn through Knotty Habit for Anivileli

Your generosity will help Anivileli continue their incredible work of supporting, empowering and uplifting women through skills development and creative opportunities. Every skein, ball and bundle of yarn represents not only a crafting resource, but also an investment in someone's future.

We are continually inspired by the kindness and generosity of our fibre community. Together, we are proving that a simple strand of yarn can help weave confidence, hope and opportunity.

It is moments like these that remind us that the fibre arts community is about so much more than yarn – it's about people, connection and caring for one another💕🧶

Thank you for helping us make a difference, one stitch at a time. ❤️

We have a variety of leather labels.

These beautiful reusable Leather labels fold around the edge of your garment and fasten with a stud pin.

The label is approximately 80 mm x 30 mm with the stud pin and hole on the two ends. This makes it possible to wrap the label around the edge of your project, personalising it and giving your project a professional finish.

Note the Tan Colour could vary as it is a natural product.

🐑❄️ KAROO WINTER WOOL FESTIVAL 2026 ❄️🐑

We are excited beyond words that we will be at the Karoo Winter Wool Festival in Middelburg, Eastern Cape, from 3–5 July 2026!

The planning has already begun, the dye pots are working overtime, and we may be spending an unreasonable amount of time dreaming about yarn. 🧶✨

We're busy creating a beautiful collection of hand-dyed yarn, carefully chosen accessories, and plenty of yarnie goodness to bring along for a truly special wool-filled weekend.

Whether you're a knitter, crocheter, spinner, weaver, or simply someone who appreciates beautiful fibre, this festival is one of the highlights of the South African fibre calendar, and we can't wait to be part of it.

Mark your calendars, gather your fibre friends, and start planning your trip to the heart of the Karoo. We'd love to see familiar faces, meet new friends, and share our love of all things wool with you.

See you in Middelburg from 3–5 July 2026! 💙

KYSO… One of our personal favourite bases. This one is composed of 75% merino and 25% nylon, but since it’s our fantastic local superwashed merino, it is wonderfully soft and smooth. The acronym stands for “Knock Your Socks Off” but this base is not just for sock knitting – it is suitable for any project that calls for fi*****ng weight yarn! It will make fantastic sweaters, cardigans, shawls and even hats!

The nylon component means the garment will be hard wearing, but the merino makes it still soft and pleasant against your skin.

Visit our website for a selection of KYSO yarn... We added beautiful combos to our website !
