We're holding a Sale Extravaganza to celebrate the bank holiday, so until tomorrow you can save 20% on all orders* when you spend £15 - just use our special discount code below.

It's the start of a long weekend for us lucky UK residents, and what better way to celebrate than with a special competition from Cucumberpatch! We're sending you on a treasure hunt around the Cucumberpatch website, looking for sweet treats...

As Daniel from Cucumberpatch explains, "When new customers come to the shop on their first visit, it's amazing how many times we hear the old adage 'I feel like a child in a sweet shop'. Well now we can back this up and sell the sweets to go with it.

"We were so excited to see the new packaging on a recent delivery of the Colinette Perugino Throw kits. These yarn sweets are oozing with wonderful colours. I think there will be the usual rush to unpack this sweetie wrapper and get stuck into the knitting - they look so good!"
