One of the best things we get to do at Loop is collect the most gorgeous materials and handmade beauties from near and far and bring them all to the shop. We genuinely love everything we sell, so it’s a very easy thing to do!

It’s difficult to fathom that we’re nearly at the end of 2025 — and yet the lights are twinkling, the wine is mulled and the gift lists are (nearly) ticked off. Soon we’ll be off to gather with loved ones, but before that, we can’t help but reflect on what a phenomenal year this has been.

Winter is a season that means so many different things to us. It’s a time of festivity, bright sparkly lights, and time with loved ones, and also a time of cosy evenings, early sunsets, and retreat. All these elements combine to make it a magical season for creativity, and we always spend winter falling even more deeply in love with craft!

One of the things we love most about this community is how much it loves to give back. By its very nature crafting brings us into contact with the physical world around us. The fact that we get to use our craft to improve the physical realities of people everywhere is just beautiful.

There’s nothing quite like seeing the many lives a pattern lives once it’s out in the world. As a designer or collaborator you may have ideas in mind for colour, texture, fibre, gauge, but you can never truly predict where the wonderful community of knitters will run with your stitches.

Blustery skies, ever-earlier sunsets, and rust hues on the trees. This time of year calls for drawing in, tending the home fires, and creating cosiness to keep out the cool days ahead. This week, we have a stellar collection of beautiful things to help you do just that!
