Claire Wellesley-Smith is an artist, a teacher , a writer and researcher based in West Yorkshire. We have loved Claire’s work for a long time, and we have had some wonderful workshops taught by her at Loop. Her first book Slow Stitch is a beautiful book about the pleasures to be had from slowing down and valuing quality over quantity.
Here at Loop, we adore Twirl Yarns. Twirl yarn’s philosophy is all about embracing the concept of “Wabi”- the rustic beauty found in imperfection, simplicity and serenity in nature.Â
You may have heard we are re-opening our shop on the 1st of May, this coming Saturday! We are super excited to welcome you back and have been very busy getting ready for your arrival. We have some more detailed information for you about shopping with us in person at the end of this post. In the meantime, we thought we’d share a little round-up of some lovely new things at Loop to keep us inspired and creating through the next few months and beyond.
