Yarns

We just can’t get enough of that beautiful summer sun that is starting to shine, which means only one thing, more summer yarns! New to Loop we have the light and soft Alba Cotton from the lovely BC Garn.

A beautiful collection of the most unique yarns, all from small mills in Japan, are inspiring our latest knits. Luxurious silks, marvellous mohair and some multi-coloured treats are all new to Loop this Spring.

As we start to welcome back the warmer weather it’s also time to say hello to some beautiful new cottons! We’re expanding our range of plant fibres like linen and cotton in preparation for the summer projects you have planned. First up we have these cute little bundles from Dutch brand Scheepjes.

  As well as bringing you the most exquisite knitting and crochet goodies, we’ve been slowly curating beautiful supplies of a craft we also love – embroidery. Perfect for adding a pretty embellishment to a finished knit or as a beautiful detail on it’s own.

Remember, we also have a Christmas gift idea section on the website if you are looking for some inspiration of what to write on your wish list.
