In the Red

According to the catwalk reports and the fashion magazines one of the colours of this winter is going to be strong red. And it is certainly a Christmassy colour

Red is a great colour choice for a time when we definitely need things that are cheery and positive. And depending on whether you pick bluer or more orangey tone, there are strong reds to suit a wide range of people.

With red yarns in everything from mohair to super chunky, you can find something to create your perfect red sweater or accessory.
