Thanks for stopping by The Chunky Needle. I’m Courtney and I'm the chunky-junkie holding those colossal knitting needles! I first started knitting in the late 1980s and took up chunky knitting 20 years ago. I started knitting very long chunky scarves and have grown to love knitting super chunky blankets and homeware using the best merino wool available. The Chunky Needle has been trading since 2018. Chunky knitting appeals to me as the finished product is so unusual and dramatic. Friends and family always ask, "where did you get that?! I want one too!" The process takes less time than conventional knitting, so results can be seen quickly, and who doesn't want that?! Working with unspun merino wool is a dream as it's so incredibly soft and tactile and the colour range is vast. The whole process is actually quite hypnotic and incredibly relaxing. I started The Chunky Needle as I loved the look, colour, texture and aesthetic that chunky knits can bring to a room. I was inspired to pick up my needles and develop a homeware brand that is both luxurious and affordable. Each piece is made by me alone with love, attention and care. I hope you'll adore your Chunky Needle knit as much as I loved making it.

Emma and I wear many hats: from designer and photographer to maker and workshop tutor. One of my first passions was photography, strongly inspired by my father and my uncle, who were both talented amateur photographers. Growing up in Namibia and South Africa, I remember my dad always having a camera in hand, recording our childhood or the stunning African landscape. As a teenager I poured over magazines like National Geographic, Drum and Life, feeling transported to distant lands through the incredible photography. I longed to leave school and travel the world, taking my own photographs. Eventually I got the chance to travel to many wonderful countries. But life got in the way and instead of pursuing my creative passions, I ended up working as a lawyer in London. The 2009 recession was a turning point in my life. Having been made redundant from my job in the City, I resolved to take the plunge and pursue a career that would make me feel more fulfilled. I decided to return to my childhood passion of photography. It’s a decision I’ve never regretted as it has led to some amazing opportunities, from co-founding the London Photo Festival to having my work featured in publications including The Telegraph and the Metro. It’s also taken me in directions I never could have anticipated. My frustration at having to juggle a bulky, unattractive camera bag as well as a handbag led me to create my own range of stylish camera bags and accessories. Over the past few years, I’ve become increasingly interested in sustainability, with an emphasis on using eco dyes, natural resources and recycled material. I now run classes along these principles which have been featured in Country Loving and Breath magazines. These take places in my she-shed in Twickenham and range from Christmas wreath making to cyanotype printing – “nature's printing press” – a more eco-friendly form of photography that is particularly effective at capturing texture. As a result of the pandemic, I’ve also started selling DIY creative kits so that you can try these crafts out in the comfort of your own home. It’s been gratifying to see these becoming so popular – my Christmas bauble kit appeared in the Metro and The Sunday Telegraph. To see more of what I’m up to or to hear about the latest classes, follow me on social media.

your flower school

Welcome to Your Flower School, Hertfordshire. We are family run School teaching from our beautiful, purpose build, air conditioned studio at our home in Welwyn Garden City. My name is Samantha and I’ve been a florist for more than 20 years and teaching for over 14yrs. I run the classes with the assistance of Cindy aka Mum! She has been a florist for more than 50 years and has taught in colleges and at our school for over 30 years. Our classes are designed to be fun and informative as well as relaxing and calming. You will be greeted by ourselves with an offer of a tea or coffee and sometimes something stronger :) Our classes are kept small so you have plenty of space to work and feel comfortable. Our classes have been described to be therapeutic and great for calming the mind. We play calming music and you are able to really get into your own zone and enjoy your time being creative. I design the arrangement in advance and supply all the flowers, sundries and equipment to make your own. With my guidance we create the arrangement together. I do not rush the class, so you have plenty of time to enjoy your creation. Myself and Cindy are on hand to help as much or as little as you want.

Hi my name's Lali aka DOLALi and I'm a visual artist based in Bristol, UK. A play on the word 'doolally', I take the definition of being 'transported with excitement or pleasure' with a hint of madness to heart in my creative pursuits, which manifests into making whatever I feel like making Born in the Philippines, I spent my childhood running around rainforests, which turned into rolling fields when I moved to England. Fast forward through Cornwall and London - 5 years and 2 law degrees later - I finally followed my heart and started a career as an independent artist in Melbourne, Australia.

My name is Linda and I have been working full time growing and selling flowers since 2014. Prior to this I worked in the constrution industry for many years, initially in administration and marketing, followed 12 years as PA to the Chairman, through the highs and lows building roads and sewage systems! Then a move into the IT department managing the teams installating IT and telecoms on big construction sites and a lot less exciting stuff resulting in spending far too much time on Doncaster railway station. Time for a change!! Joining the fledgling organisation Flowers from the Farm (FFTF) in 2012 when members numbered around 50, led to becoming co-ordinator for the East Midlands region in 2015 and Co-Chair for a two year fixed term 2018-20. Since I joined FFTF has grown to nearly 1000 members championing local grown flowers. My business increased from selling a few bunches of flowers a week to supplying flowers and floristry for weddings, funerals and in 2020 a big expansion in selling flowers to the general public, followed by a return to farmers’ markets in 2021 where from March to September you will find The Spotted Dog at Brigg, Lincoln and Saxilby. My flowers are grown with the environment in mind. The poly tunnel is unheated, the greenhouse uses electric for only two months of the year, the flowers pesticide free and tonnes of compost are supplied from our own horses and livestock every year, supplemented by bulk green waste. Flowers are supplied wrapped in kraft paper or re-useable vases or buckets depending on volume supplied! I use primarily British flowers, either grown by myself or sourced from other growers, locally in Lincolnshire and Cornwall early/late season. On very rare occasions I will use carefully sourced imported flowers if needed for the work being undertaken although more and more customers are requesting “only British” and are happy to work with the seasons. Media mentions have included BBC Radio 4 Open Country with Helen Mark on her programme ‘Inspired by Flowers in Lincolnshire’, Radio 4 ‘Farming Today’ during British Flowers Week, Radio Newark with Girls About Town, BBC television for RHS Chelsea Flower Show 2018 when I was filmed cutting flowers to ready to transport to London for use in the Flowers from the Farm exhibit when the amazing team won a gold medal. There have also been articles in My Weekly Magazine, Flower Arranger magazine, The Gainsborough Standard, The Lincoln Business Journal and in 2020 The Daily Telegraph in an article about the flower industry during the Covid pandemic. In 2021 I was delighted to welcome Lizzie Musham from BBC Radio Lincolnshire for a field walk ahead of FFTF Flower Farmers Big Weekend and we met up again in November when she joined one of our wreath making workshops at The Cross Keys Stow and made a wreath live on air! I’m passionate about promoting natural funeral flowers suitable for green burial grounds, never use floral foam and in 2020 became an associate member of the Association of Green Funeral Directors. My wedding flowers have appeared on Love My Dress and Rock My Wedding blogs and I undertake weddings only within a 50 mile radius of my home.
