September is a month that is always full of new beginnings, but it also feels tinged with tradition. This week, we’re focusing on a pattern does a stellar job of balancing the two, putting a modern spin on a Shetland knitting tradition.
About a decade ago, Sophie Ochera started an eye-catching line of knitwear with a bright, playful sweater that paid tribute to textile traditions while carving a totally new path. Now that sweater is finally available as a handknitting pattern for adults, and we could not adore it more.
Crochet is having a moment. From runway regalia to everyday attire, everywhere we turn it’s coming up crochet, and we couldn’t be more thrilled.
It’s hard to believe it was more than 10 years ago that Norah Gaughan first designed the Sous Sous sweater for Loop. Now, to celebrate two decades of Loop, Norah has designed a brand new version, and we’re falling in love with it all over again!
We’ve had a fabulous time rolling out all our fabulous 20th anniversary treats over the past several weeks — and fear not, there’s more to come — but this week we wanted to go back to our roots and celebrate a really phenomenal yarn we’re so happy to have in the shop.
This week’s anniversary special is a cuddly cutie you can’t help but fall in love with, and his story goes all the way back to the very first days of Loop.
One of our favourite things about all the treasures here at Loop is how much care goes into making them. And nowhere is that more true than in all our lovely naturally dyed beauties.
Are your hearts full? Because ours are. We had such a wonderful time last weekend celebrating two decades of Loop with so many of you — both in person and online! But don’t worry, the anniversary festivities roll on, with more gorgeous launches still to come.
This weekend is the one we’ve all been waiting for, when we’ll come together and celebrate Loop’s 20th anniversary! The shop is looking extra spiffy thanks to a window makeover by Julie Arkell and we have some very special treats to share with you.
This week’s limited edition 20th anniversary release is so dreamy we’re still pinching ourselves to make sure it’s real. We’re beyond chuffed to bring you an exclusive collection of Aurifil Cotton Floss Bobbins!
