21 Candles for Us, 21 Treats for You!
Twenty-one years of Loop! It’s hard to believe how much time has gone by since that very first July we opened our little yarn shop — and how much has changed in that time!

We are utterly delighted to welcome Laine’s 10th anniversary issue and congratulate them on this incredible milestone. We know all about the big and little things it takes to make it this far, and we are totally in awe of the incredible women who have made this powerhouse publisher what it is today!
One of our favourite things about life in this sweet little shop is that it’s impossible not to be inspired. Everywhere you look there’s something to spark a whole new project. This week our imaginations are running wild with arrivals from Teinture Sauvage, Aitor Saraiba, Monahan Papers, and more!
We love every kind of stitching. If it uses a hook or a needle, it’s for us. But every once in a while, one type of stitching just totally captures our imagination, and right now it’s crochet!
There’s little we love as much as a shawl. These versitile, all-season garments are a joy to wear, and the rhythm of making them is always entrancing. So when a yarn is designed especially for making shawls, there’s a good chance we’re going to adore it.
At Loop, we’re lucky enough to spend our days surrounded by gorgeous knits. Over the years we’ve seen so many incredible pieces come through the door. But every once in a while there’s one we just can’t get out of our heads.
It’s almost time to welcome Aitor Saraiba and Tomomi Mimura! These fabulous artists are coming to Loop for a whole week of textile joy, and we can’t wait for all the beauty they’ll bring!
They’re back! It was such an honour to have Mette Mehlsen design the Anemone Scarf especially for Loop’s 20th anniversary and we’re totally delighted to have her kits for the scarf back in the shop.
We’re overjoyed to welcome two delightful new yarns from Biches & Bûches this week. The carefully curated bases from this brilliant brand never disapoint — Le Petit Organic Cotton and Le Lambswool are no exception!
When was the last time you found a new favourite? Whether it’s stumbling on a hidden bakery no one seems to know about or following a tip from a friend to see a new favourite view of your city, that little thrill you get when you first find something you just know is going to become a huge part of your life is like gold dust.
