Hello Edinburgh!
With just three weeks left until the much anticipated Edinburgh Yarn Festival on March 10th and 11th, our excitement – not to mention the planning and the packing – is well underway. You might want to keep a pen at the ready as you scroll on down; here’s what Loop is bringing to Edinburgh!
You’ll find us at our stand H1, with our very special guests – the Spincycle gals, all the way from Bellingham, Washington! They will be on the Loop stand from 2-3 on Friday and Saturday, where we have a VERY special kit that will be launched in honour of EYF – The Spinsters have created a special colourway for Loop at EYF, for a festival special pattern by Andrea Mowry (dreareneeknits)! We are beyond excited and honoured to host such brilliant people.
We will also be launching a new pattern designed by the talented Ella Austin!
Feast your eyes on this sneak peek of our gorgeous new design, knit in Semilla Grosso from BC Garn.

Almost there, yarn friends. We will be accepting both card and cash payments, we look forward to seeing you at the fair!
omg, I so wish I could come along, but my bank account would suffer terribly!!
WOW – can’t wait to see Ella’s pattern – but won’t be at EYF :(
No worries- we will launch it at EYF but will properly launch it within days afterwards for the online shop, London shop and Ravelry.
See you there, can’t wait!!
Oh goodness, I can’t wait to see all these wonderful yarns at EYF! Happy I’ve saved for the occasion.
