Quince & Co. capture the simple beauty of wool with a modern and fresh aesthetic. From their carefully sourced yarns to their comfortable and classic designs, we knew they’d fit right in at Loop. We’ve proudly been the European flag ship store for Quince and Co. for many years so it only seemed right that they were part of our 10th Anniversary celebrations.
Another few clues from Loop’s upcoming 10th Anniversary book! This post we are finding out more from Paulina Popiolek, shawl designer extraordinaire and Shilasdair, yarn of the finest blend complimented with gorgeous natural dyes.
Onto the next instalment in our series of 10th Anniversary blogs, where each week we’ll be revealing a little bit more about our new book, coming soon in September. A collaboration with ten of our favourite dyers and ten brilliant designers, this special project is a beautiful assemblage of all things Loop. This week we chat to designer and friend Meghan Fernandes and the talented Emily Foden of Viola yarns about their involvement with the book.
You may have noticed the hints we’ve been dropping on Instagram and here on the blog too about our 10th Anniversary celebrations – we’re so excited to share what we have planned! The big reveal won’t be until September, but over the next few weeks we’ll be sharing exclusive sneak peeks from Loop’s new book.
We’re feeling inspired by all the Japanese and Japanese themed treats at Loop!
Need a replacement for wool this summer? Well we are certainly cottoning on to the alternatives! We have a huge selection of colours and thicknesses in sunny cotton and many new to Loop just this week!
When the warmer weather comes around, it’s time for light and fresh knits. Quince & Co. have that covered with Sparrow, a simple and beautiful pure linen yarn. With new shades and patterns for 2015, we just can’t resist! Sparrow plus all our other yarns and haberdashery will be available to purchase online and in the shop with a 10% discount this Saturday 2nd May. Enjoy this flash sale to celebrate Yarn Store Day!
Loop is proud to be the European flagship shop for Quince & Co. and just when we think we couldn’t love their yarns any more, along comes Owl. Lofty and light with a slight rustic feel, Owl is a cozy hug of alpaca and wool. Natural blends take centre stage with a selection from dark tweeds to snowy skies. When over dyed, these natural shades provide the heathered base of the pastel and jewel toned colours.
We know you love the subtle variation and depth of colour hand dyed yarns give – and so do we! New at Loop are some gorgeous hand dyed beauties from Cowgirlblues. We now have their plump double knitting and the delicate lace weight for your knitting delight. Cowgirlblues has inspired our Spring window display and some new knits too! We caught up with owner Bridget Henderson to find our more, plus make sure you read to the end of the post to find out how to enter our Cowgirlblues giveaway! This giveaway is now closed, but we’ll have lots more in the future!
The Easter Bunny is paying an early visit to Loop as we get ready for the arrival of Spring! We have a whole warren of haberdashery and knitting treats inspired by our leporine friends for this Easter!
