The latest Making magazine  is now available to purchase in the shop or online. Making is always packed with the most interesting projects to sew, quilt, knit, crochet and make!

For convenience and for a limited time, if you just want to purchase the latest issue, I have added a PayPal button below, price below includes 1st Class UK postage for this issue.

Friday, 8th June 2018 – Shop Closed and New Arrivals.

The shop will be closed on Friday, 8th June 2018, as I will be moving house on the day and will re-open again on Saturday morning, as usual.

Just arrived the latest Amirisu magazine from Japan, in a new A4 format and now completely in English.  This issue also features  – “Loie” a shawl pattern by Edinburgh based designer and tutor – Maddie Harvey,

I have just received a few sets of Chiaogoo’s New Red Lace Twist “Shorties”.  This new system looks so  amazingly cute, neat and tiny.  They are perfect for knitting socks and sleeves, and for small circumferences in the round and especially for people who do not like using DPNs.  The combo tips will be sold separately later in the year.
