We wanted to share this incredibly insightful and joyful discussion, hosted by Squam this past July, that centred around issues of non-inclusion and racism that are ingrained in the maker community. We watched the panel discussion and were very moved by it and therefore felt it was important to share with our audience. It has also made us consider ways in which we can build more connections in the knitting community.

It’s now less than a week until The Edinburgh Yarn Festival. We have everything packed up, and we’re starting to get very excited about our trip up to Scotland! We have so many exciting new things lined up, that will be launching at EYF. But don’t worry if you’re not able to attend, we will have lots of our new items available in store soon, and some of our books and kits are available right now.

It’s already that time of year! Edinburgh Yarn Festival is just a few weeks away and we have been working very hard at Loop to plan and pack up the amazing selection of yarns and haberdashery that we will have with us this year. This week we’re going to give you a little sneak peek of all the goodies that will be on Loop’s stand this year.

A few days ago, we received a very exciting delivery from Mondo Fil in Kyoto, Japan. We have added to the yarns we stock from Mondo Fil, and we are so excited to tell you about the newest editions. Mondo Fil yarns are always so interesting and unique, and are so inspiring when new deliveries arrive. The boxes are always filled with playful happy colours!

With the launch of Laine Magazine issue 7 last Friday, and the imminent launch of Pom Pom Quarterly 28 on the 28th of this month, we want to take a closer look at these wonderful publications. Both have amazing patterns that we are itching to cast on, and we are lucky enough to carry some of the yarns that are used!

Brrr! Temperatures have dropped considerably here in London, so we have snuggly knits on our minds at Loop this week. Our new favourite yarn is just perfect for keeping us warm and safe – CaMaRose Lama-tweed, from Denmark.  

Hello and a happy New Year from all of us at Loop! The year has only just begun, but we already have so many wonderful things coming up in 2019 and we’re so excited to share them with you. We have some very special classes and events planned, new yarns arriving, and of course we have Edinburgh Yarn Festival to look forward to!
