Who are we?

We love yarn. I mean, really love yarn, particularly producers and manufacturers with eco-friendly ethics!

Cast On A Few has been created to celebrate the incredible range of natural fibre products and artisans we are so fortunate to have access to, especially those living right here in Aotearoa New Zealand. We want to support these amazing entrepreneurs and help to make their products available to a greater audience.

We also want to bring the gift of knitting and crochet to more of you who are keen to learn from scratch, or build on your knowledge-base. If you can hold and use needles or a hook, we'll show you how to start creating your own gorgeous masterpieces in the comfort of your own space - or in ours.

For the full story (so far - because there's plenty more to come!), click here and check out who's behind the Cast On A Few brand.

So... welcome! Come on in! Cast On A Few really is where all your beautiful projects begin!

Testimonial

Mrs J is like Mary Poppins when it comes to teaching. She is very good at dealing with all sorts of learning challenges whether it is with someone with Autism, old age with cognitive challenges or simply the rigid brain who doesn’t want to learn complicated tasks. She makes things very easy for anyone to be able to understand and learn. Her workshops are full of love and humour!!
