Our stock includes Sirdar, King Cole, Rico Design, Artesano, and UK Alpaca yarns, Injabulo buttons, haberdashery from King Cole and Clover, Brittany needles and lots of other goodies.
Multi-ply is owned and run by Helen Williams, an experienced knitter with a family background in textiles.
Wherever possible we are trying to stock British and fairly-traded products and support Yorkshire-based companies. We are trying to be environmentally responsible retailers from using as little packaging as possible, recycling when we can and even drinking fair trade tea!
Multi-ply is very much a family affair. Whilst it is Helen's business and most of the time she deals with orders and enquiries, she is helped iby her mum, Barbara, a weaver, tassel maker and lifelong knitter. Helen's husband, George, does the fancy bits on the online shop, designs the publicity material and is gradually coming to understand this new language called knitting. Son Andrew (10) is a whizz with the pricing gun and enjoys helping out with stock checks, orders and anything which involves money or counting. Kirsty (5) likes to help with tidying up and Alistair (12) just likes to keep out of the way!
