We've been going deep in the archives lately... and look what turned up. A young Rachel Hunter, bright-eyed and jersey-clad. Too good not to share!

Rachel Hunter do you remember this one? ❀

This community. We are absolutely here for it. 🧑

Seeing our patterns from decades past still on the needles makes our day. We may not be able to keep every pattern in print, but clearly they live on in the best possible way: in your hands.

Keep sharing your makes with us. We love seeing every single one...and we agree, it's hard to beat a pattern from the 80's, what a decade!

Thanks for sharing this with us Timaru Sewing Centre β€” it's beautifully knitted :)

Introducing Crucci Stitch & Share β€” and what a way to kick things off.

When the very talented knits (instagram) posted about the Sophie Scarf she'd knitted in our Aella 8 ply (Sienna), we just had to share it with you all. With a bio description that just says 'kniiiiits knits knits knits knits knits' we knew we were kindred spirits. Gillain's knitting all sorts of lovely things down in Central Otago at the moment, so go on, give her a follow and be inspired!

If you've got a Crucci project you're proud of β€” whether it's one of our yarns, a Crucci pattern, or both β€” tag us in your post. We'd love to share it here and keep this community feeling inspired.

It's been a big season for new patterns, colours and yarns β€” and there's still more to come. Here's your first peek at the 16 gorgeous new colours in our latest range.

You may have heard that wool prices have risen significantly across New Zealand and Australia over the past year. We're really happy for our wool growers β€” they produce an incredible raw material and it's wonderful to see that recognised. But it does, unfortunately, have a flow-on effect on our yarn prices.

We know life is expensive at the moment and we've held our prices for as long as we possibly could, but from 1 September you'll start to see some increases across our range. Our best advice? Stock up now, not that you ever need an excuse to add another project to the shelf ;)

The silver lining is that strong global demand for natural fibres means Australasian wool - the fibre we create our yarn from - is being recognised as some of the best in the world, and that bodes well for wool and woollen yarn markets going forward.

As always, thank you for your support. We love this community, and we love making beautiful yarn for all of your incredible creations.

Introducing four new shades of Luxury Merino Crepe 8ply β€” Cocoa, Burgundy, Camel and Verdant. 🀎🍷πŸͺπŸ’š

This range is a bit of a favourite here at Crucci, so we decided to expand it β€” seven new colours in total, check back later today for the other three β€” They're so good!!

Luxury Merino Crepe 8ply is one of the softest merino yarns you'll find anywhere, and what sets it apart is the construction. By twisting the plies in opposing directions, crepe yarns develop a rounder, firmer structure than standard spun β€” giving your finished fabric exceptional stitch definition, a subtle natural sheen, and resilience against pilling. Cables pop, stocking stitch looks polished, and even the simplest patterns look elevated.

At DK weight on 4mm needles, it works with a huge range of patterns and suits knitters of all levels.

As always it's difficult to show true colours on here so visit your local stockist - stockist list is on our website. ✨
