This week we’ve had a fortuitous arrival in the shop: The gorgeous linen yarn Antigone by De Rerum Natura has burst through the door in no less than 30 colours, just as the days are getting warmer and we’re finally shedding our heavy winter layers.

With the two May bank holidays swiftly approaching and the promise of warm weather on the horizon, we can virtually feel the pull of summer. That’s why we’re so excited to have Laine Magazine’s Summer 2024 issue available for preorder now!

More of the coveted Fabulous Fabric Totes have arrived! Just two weeks after we first introduced these remarkable little bags we’re so so happy to be able to bring you more of them — and in some new colours, too!

All over London, spring is in full bloom — and Loop is no exception! Just in time for the Easter bank holidays we’ve received all kinds of inspiration to keep your needles clicking.

This spring we’re welcoming Holger Auffenberg to Loop to teach two fabulous classes all about socks, one of the most wearable and rewarding wardrobe items to knit. Read on for all the details!

We are over the moon about so so many yarn deliveries that have arrived this week. We’ve had a bumper crop of shipments from some of our most coveted brands and we are frolicking in all the soft, woolly goodness!

With the holiday season winding down, January can seem long and dark. But with plenty of cosy hours for stitching and tons of time to dream up projects for the year ahead, it’s actually one of our favourites. And this year is especially sweet, with classes kicking off, old favourites back in the shop, and a sale on a very special yarn!

With 10 shopping days until Christmas, our minds are on our favourite things, like Qing’s incredibly soft bases, sweet haberdashery treats, gorgeous textile magazines, and lovely opportunities to get together and make things. We’ve also extended our opening hours to 11am to 6pm on all our normal days of operation before Christmas Eve. There’s more info about our opening times over the holiday season at the end of this post.
