  • 5/5 from Alexandra Sukhushina, attended Aug 2024: Had a great time learning to hand-knit with wonderfully soft merino wool (and talking about cats!). Wendy was an excellent host and wrapped up the evening with a delicious home made cake. Obviously a lot of love, care and thought goes into these workshops, with great materials - so soft! Highly recommend!
  • 5/5 from Sharon Berkovic, attended Jul 2024: Wendy was a wonderful teacher and host. She taught us how to knit round cushions which were simple to make and we finished them in class and took them home. Wendy catered for all our needs. My daughter and I work FIFO and after messaging Wendy she created a private class for us. I highly recommend this class to anyone that would like to make a fun, quick and easy decor item for their house. We loved it!
  • 5/5 from Maddison, attended Jul 2024: Wendy was kind informative energetic and the overall experience was fun and a simple procedure! Would do it again!
  • 5/5 from Kerry Reverzani, attended Jan 2024: This was a really fun workshop. Wendy was really helpful. She use good quality materials. We enjoyed a lovely afternoon tea and a chat once we were finished. And taking home a cute handmade cushion is great. I would recommend doing a workshop with Wendy.
  • 5/5 from Jen-Ni Chin, attended Oct 2023: It was a very wonderful and fun experience. I learned something new, and I made a cushion to take home. My family and I gathered together to make a cushion for themselves, we all had fun. Thank you for this such wonderful chance and the nice and wonderful talk in class. We had great fun.
  • 5/5 from Vanessa Teo, attended Jun 2023: It was super fun just spending an hour at Wendy's place to make the cushion. The wool is SOOO soft and we had difficulty choosing between the 6 colours. She was very friendly and offered us some little treats as well. She stays near a couple of cafes so definitely go check those out after the workshop!

  • 5/5 from Angelique Martin, attended Oct 2022: Highly enjoyable afternoon and Wendy was a great tutor and an awesome host.

It's Pretty Knotted is a local Western Australian brand crafting artisanal extreme knitted home decor and wares using only 100 per cent premium 18-micron superfine Australian Merino wool.
Our pieces are 'labours of love' and we are passionate about every item that we create and all products are individually hand-knitted to produce exquisite unique wares.
We place an emphasis on our superior quality wares and only knit with 18 microns (fibre width) which is super fine premium material with a baby soft texture. Other extreme knitters typically use 23-microns wool that is of inferior quality and makes for products that have a coarser texture that is not so dreamy and soft to touch.
As a creative artist, founder Wendy McClelland has always been captivated and inspired by the arrays of colours and textures that exist amongst textiles and have worked with them for most of her life.
She first got a taste for spinning and knitting in the early 80s when one of the craft’s founders in Western Australia - Mrs De La Hunty, shared her skills and passion for working with wool. Wendy was a young and eager apprentice living on the coastal town Albany, and she was a 91-year-old teacher who never let her near blindness and stiff wizened fingers get in the way of her expert use of the spinning wheel.
Many years later, Wendy discovered the beautiful Merino woollen tops that she now works with. She loves the feeling and texture of the product and the beautiful yarn that it produces, plus it is so soft and turns the notion that wool is itchy and uncomfortable completely on its head. Merino fibres are so much finer and softer than other standard wools.
As a next to skin layer, Merino wool is hard to beat. Another feature of Merino wool which is wonderful is that it has a natural oft that traps heat very efficiently between the fibres, making it warmer than a synthetic of the same weight. It is such an amazing product that she feels passionate about and is the foundation of It's Pretty Knotted's products.
