A yarn is just a good story and this one starts with… yarn!
Taught to knit as a youngster by a mother, two grandmothers and host of special Aunts, craft and making has always been in my genes. I fondly remember ‘matinee coats’ being knitted on a Saturday afternoon, eagerly anticipating a new arrival, of which there were plenty!
Crafting has always been a passion and I’ve always had a keen eye for design, even as a Geography Teacher, it was all about those corduroy elbow patches and plaid!
I studied Marine Geography and feel in my element at the sea. I love coastal walks and observing the sheer power of the physical landscape, as a result, I take huge inspiration from it.
Becoming a mother definitely changed my priorities. My eldest was born with severe allergies and new parenthood brought many obstacles navigating anaphylaxis. I believe a crocheted peanut is a safe peanut!

Christmas spirit in yarn form! I can't describe the sheer delight I felt at opening my parcel from The Peanut Yarn - it was as if I were a child again on Christmas morning! Rachel was an absolute delight and her little crocheted creations are adorable. I'm certain they will become a treasured part of our Christmases for years to come. Thank you Rachel! x

I was absolutely delighted with my order from Rachel of Peanut Yarn - the Jolly HollyBerry Pig in Blanket, Russell the Brussel Sprout, and Casper the Carrot Christmas tree decorations are simply magical. The craftsmanship is exquisite, with every stitch full of character and charm.
What truly moved me was the care in the packaging and the thoughtful little extra touches - it felt like opening a gift made with love. I actually felt quite emotional seeing how wonderful everything was. These pieces aren’t just decorations, they’re treasures that bring joy and warmth to the season.
