Launching this week are two wonderful new books, Fair Isle Weekend by Mary J Mucklestone and Quince & Co’s This & That; 10 knits to keep you warm and cozy. Both of these books are an incredible resource of inspiring collections of knitwear which will keep you knitting and cosy all through the autumn and winter months. Along with Owlet, a new yarn from Quince & Co, we also have a round-up of some of our favourite yarns perfect for colourwork knitting including a new box set of 50 beautiful colours in The Border Mill’s North Coast Tweed! 

We have some new online classes we would like to tell you about this week as well as some regular online workshops with new dates in the diary. We are very excited to be able to welcome Carolyn Bloom from Bloom Handmade Studios to our roster of talented artist-teachers at Loop.

The Fall/ Winter issue of Amirisu “From Land to Needles” is launching next Friday, the 6th of November. We thought we’d give you a sneak peek into some of the gorgeous patterns this beautiful magazine has to offer. And more treasures from Japan have arrived with new stock of Minä Perhonen buttons and fabric swatches!

Making Magazine Issue 10 Intricate is launching today! We’ve all been waiting to see what’s in store for us in this beautiful issue. This week we focus on several projects in the magazine to keep us inspired and making.

Our super popular Tiny Tassels Shawl kit is back with the luxurious hand-dyed yarns of La Bien Aimée Atelier in Paris.  We have three wonderful new colour combinations for you in the super soft and luxurious cashmerino base. Sanho, a beautiful and bright turquoise with flecks of rust. Loam, an earthy and lush combination with Bois de Rose for the tassels and Ichigo, a soft coral with hints of vivid pink and bright yellow Buzz for the tassels.

We are so thrilled to have some new sets of Linladan’s wonderful 100% linen thread! You might remember the beautiful Nordiska vintage threads we had a few weeks ago from Tanja of Linladan in Sweden.  This thread is Lyster linen and is the same weight as the vintage linen threads. Each box has two kinds of the Lyster linen threads. One is a soft ,even thread and the other a slightly firmer more fibrous thread. They are all incredibly beautiful.
