The idea of Stitch! was born when Rodwins in Southgate closed its doors in December 2018. The local crafting community in Southgate were devastated so Suzanne, Karen and Carol came up with plans to provide haberdashery, fabrics and knitting supplies with the addition of crafting classes for all ages.  5 years on and driven by the needs of our community we have made workshops and classes our primary focus.

STITCH HAS MOBILISED! In May 2024 we moved from our fixed premises shop out into the community and will be running our workshops locally in various venues including Arbeit Studios, Philanthropy, My Time cafe, Firs Farm Community Centre and the Fox pub. We can also bring our classes to you, either to your workplace, home or private event.  We look forward to greeting you in these fabulous venues and we are excited to have the opportunity to widen our reach and community and focus on moving forwards and spreading our love of crafting.

Previously Stitch! was based at 2 Hazelwood Lane, Palmers Green, N13 5EX. We were situated in the Post Office at 364 Green Lanes, Palmers Green, N13 before this and we originally were based as a pop-up in the former Grout’s draper’s shop, which served the Palmers Green community for more than 60 years.
