CLUB SIGN UPS HAVE NOW CLOSED.

A SUMMER OF MYSTERY

Join us between May and September as we knit our way through a new Spring / Summer design collection, enjoy ten classic mystery novels, and explore the curious and fascinating world of queen of golden age detective fiction, Margery Allingham

What does the club involve?

1 A sparkling new design collection! Fortnightly releases of lightweight, seasonal knits, each inspired by the golden age of detective fiction (which was also, of course, the golden age of modernist fashion, Art Deco style and an era of ground-changing innovation in many areas of technology and design). The collection is split evenly between smaller and larger projects (garments and accessories), all knitted in Kate’s flagship Milarrochy Tweed with the odd surprise along the way. There are eleven patterns in total (including the mystery shawl).

2 A Mystery shawl knitalong! Join us, as we traverse London from the West End to the dockside, unravelling the Goff Place Mystery as we go (1 clue every month for 4 months)

3 A summer book club! Join us as we read 10 classic Margery Allingham novels together. To guide your reading, every fortnight, as a new mystery is introduced, you’ll receive a newsletter with a short introduction to the book, together with points for consideration (which you may wish to explore individually as you read, or collectively in discussion with other club members).

4 A collection of illuminating essays! These entertaining long reads (released fortnightly to be enjoyed alongside —and in-between—our book club novels) explore a wide range of exciting topics from knitting and couture in golden age detective fiction to Margery Allingham’s own creative passion for making her own clothes. For this part of the club, Kate is thrilled to be joined by a group of brilliant women, each of whom is an acclaimed author (as well as a Margery Allingham superfan). Our talented contributors include podcasters, fashion journalists, crime novelists and Margery Allingham’s own biographer.

5 A full-colour print book! including Kate’s design collection, the mystery shawl pattern, and all of the critical essays, shipped to any address worldwide. A digital only e-book is also available for those club members that prefer it.
