ABOUT US
The UK Hand Knitting Association, (UKHKA),
formerly The British Hand Knitting Confederation, was formed in 1991
when the Hand Knitting Association (HKA) merged with the British Hand
Knitting Association (BHKA). The BHKC's main aim was to raise the
profile of hand knitting. It did this through 'Learn to Knit' classes
held throughout the UK, 'Relax and Knit' stands at all the main Knitting
and Sewing shows and by the introduction of National Competitions
showcased at the Knitting and Sewing shows.
We are now at a stage where 'knitting'
is the new 'buzz' word, knitting groups are mushrooming all over the
country, knitting shops are opening back on the High Streets and on
the Internet and exciting new yarns are being introduced by the season.
None of this would have been possible without you, our knitters.

The UK Hand Knitting Association in alphabetical order
