On the surface, it might look like colourful yarn, project bags, and the very rare photo of whatever I’m knitting.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Behind the scenes? It’s colour planning, fabric hunting, dyeing, drying, sewing, photographing, packing orders, updating the website, answering emails... and drinking a truly impressive amount of tea. ☕
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Every skein and every bag starts as an idea and passes through my hands more times than I could possibly count before it makes its way to you.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It’s often a little chaotic, usually covered in yarn or fabric, and there’s a good chance something is drying somewhere in the house right now. But after more than 10 years, I still wouldn’t have it any other way.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

I’d love to know … what part of the process surprised you the most?

🌌 Last chance to pre-order your Cosmic Girl Advent - A constellation of colour.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
After a rather unexpected fall left me a little bruised and behind schedule, I’ve extended the pre-order window by 24 hours.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If you’ve been thinking about treating yourself to this year’s advent, this is your final chance to join the journey before pre-orders close.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Inspired by the vivid glow of nebulae, Cosmic Girl is a gradient of luminous brights, rich jewel tones and deep cosmic shades. Designed as a complete colour story, it’s bold, joyful and created to be a little escape from the everyday.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✨ Pre-orders now close in 24 hours.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
A huge thank you for all of your kindness, patience and lovely messages over the last few days. As always, I’m so grateful for this wonderful community. 💛

Every year, the TLGG Advent tells a different colour story.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
From moody palettes and atmospheric fades to vibrant collections full of personality, each advent has been designed to be a journey through colour.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Want to see what the the last three 24 days of TLGG advents looked like ...
2025 - Ink & Alchemy | 2024 - Paradise | 2023 - Nutcracker
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
One of my favourite things is seeing the excitement as advents arrive, the daily reveals in December, and the incredible projects that emerge long after the last parcel has been opened.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This year, that story continues with Cosmic Girl — a bold, luminous collection inspired by the cosmos.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If you’ve joined me for an advent before, thank you for being part of the journey. And if this will be your first, I’d love to welcome you aboard. 🌌
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✨ Cosmic Girl is available to order until 30th June.

Hello, I’m Gemma - Gem to most people 👋

With so many new faces joining recently, I thought it was time for a proper introduction.

I’m the founder of The Little Grey Girl, and for nearly 10 years I’ve been sewing project bags, dyeing yarn, packing parcels, plus everything else 😉 and building this colourful little business one project bag or skein at a time.

TLGG has grown and evolved over the years, but at its heart it’s always been about creating products that bring a little joy to your making - whether that’s the perfect project bag, a carefully curated colour palette or a skein that makes you excited to cast on.

When I’m not working on TLGG or at my cafe day job, you’ll usually find me with a cup of tea in hand, a knitting project nearby and probably watching football or a good binge-worthy series.

Whether you’ve been here since the early days or you’ve only just discovered TLGG, thank you for being part of the journey.

I’d love to know — how you came to follow me here? 🩶

✨Cosmic Girl
A constellation of colour

This year’s advent is an invitation to step beyond the everyday and into a universe of colour.

Inspired by the vivid glow of nebulae and the energy of the cosmos, Cosmic Girl explores colour at its most radiant — where deep space tones meet luminous brights and rich jewel shades.

Designed as a gradient, each colour flows into the next, creating a palette that feels bold and expressive.

Whether you open it day by day or go for the weekly option, Cosmic Girl is a celebration of colour without limits.

✨ Available to order until 30th June

Soooo … have you picked your option yet?

May, in a nutshell ✨

A month of yarn, colour, coffee shop work days at far too many cups of tea (if there is such a thing) Champions League nights at the Emirates (and winning the league)

We travelled to meeting customers old and new plus spending time with my small business friends/family.

TLGG HQ was buzzing with yarn dyeing, packing orders, and planning exciting things behind the scenes, as well as finding little moments to enjoy along the way.

Not every moment makes it onto the grid, so here’s a little glimpse of what May looked like from my corner of the TLGG world.

Onwards to June. 😎

Did you enjoy seeing a tiny glimpse into the TLGG world?!
