About

Hi, I'm Sam — the hands (and heart) behind Little Name Knits.

I've been hand personalising these beautiful hand knitted baby cardigans for over four years now, and what started as something I thought I'd try out on my own babies hand knits (Grandma Shirley had been very busy!) has grown into something I'm incredibly proud of. Every single cardigan that leaves my hands has been hand knitted stitch by stitch and embroidered with care — no machines, no outsourcing, just proper handmade craft.

I specialise in personalised baby name cardigans — hand knitted, hand embroidered to order, and made right here in the UK. These are sourced from a variety of incredibly talented knitters i've connected with over the years of growing this business. Whether you're looking for the perfect coming home outfit, a name reveal gift, a baby shower present, or something truly special for a newborn, I'd love to help you find it.

As seen on ITV This Morning with Sian Welby (baby Ruby birth announcement), and trusted by families across the UK for almost five years — I know how much these little knits mean to the people who receive them. That's why every order is packed with care in a box with tissue paper as standard.

If you have a knit you already love, I also offer a send-in personalisation service — just send it to me and I'll embroider your chosen name onto it.

Thank you so much for being here. I hope you find something you love. 🧶
