From here, Twomax produced their upmarket knitwear which was sold by the likes of Selfridges, House of Fraser and Harrods. Their products were seen as being particularly fashionable in the 1960s and 1970s, but by the start of the 1980s the business was in decline and it soon closed. The building remained and is currenty being converted into residential housing.

The former Twomax factory on Old Rutherglen Road in the Gorbals area of Glasgow. Originally built as a cotton mill in 1817, it was taken over by Twomax, a Glasgow-based knitwear manufacturer, in the 1920s. Twomax was started in a disused pub in the Bridgeton by Hugh McClure and Donald McIntosh (the two Macs from which its name was derived), before moving to this location.

Who doesn’t need a fresh pair of warm, woolly socks? Feet get cold here in winter time, and let’s be honest - hand-knit socks just feel better!

Check out my stylish and sporty Old-School Tennis Sock knitting pattern - it's easy-to-follow, knitting tutorials, and support are available, so you can't go wrong with the, pattern (pattern in website. Link in bio).

Also, my impromptu photoshoot had an unexpected guest - Max, who spotted the perfect opportunity for a cuddle and absolutely stole the show! 😅
