On the 7-9th June at Nether Pirn Farm in Innerleithan, the first Transcend Bike Festival will take place.

The festival brings bikes, beers, brands, and bands together for an epic weekend!

The Mountain Bike World Cup takes place at the Nevis Range from 31st May – 2nd June.

Since 2014 Team Wonky have made the journey to Fort William to watch this event. This year we are very excited to be exhibiting for the first time! We’ll be set up in the bustling event village alongside industry leaders.

In this blog post we take a look at the various properties and benefits of different kinds of yarn. We currently use four varieties in our knitted accessories, lets find out more about them.

The first event of our Summer tour is Keswick Mountain Festival. In its 13th year, the festival will take place on 16th-19th May at Crow Park in Keswick, Cumbria. We will be in attendance with our knitted accessories and custom designed hats.

Early this year we completed an order of bespoke knitted hats for Black Sheep Brewery. Graham and I visited this impressive brewery in Masham, North Yorkshire during the summer. We’ve highlighted some features of the brewery, find out a bit more about their products and ours!

Just as we thought we’d gotten over eating all that chocolate at Christmas, it’s time to start tucking into the Easter eggs again. If you’ve had your fill of chocolate already, we’ve put together a list of activities to get you and your family out and about this Easter Bank Holiday weekend.

The first signs of Spring are appearing everywhere in the countryside – daffodils sprouting up in the grass and the sun making a welcomed appearance in the sky. With the change in season, we’ve highlighted some Spring knitwear to add to your wardrobe.

Whether it’s with a nice a cup of tea in the morning or a countryside stroll, it’s nice to spend time together.  We’ve put together a list of ideas to help you have a wonderful Mother’s Day.

Customised wedding hats are a great gift, they can be made for the happy couple, your stag and hen party or even the whole family! If you’ve got an idea, we can help you to create a truly unique design.
We’ll then knit the hats and hand-finish them in our workshop to ensure they will last for years to come.

Every week we design, knit and hand finish an array of customised hats.
We’ve just completed this order for Leeds Roller Derby.
They wanted some acrylic yarn and some Shetland wool hats to suit individual preferences.
