I love pretty much anything published by Laine, they have outdone themselves with this issue however.
Immediately on flicking through I bookmarked three 'must knits' and really enjoyed the article on Satu Rämö too ( if you've not read her novels now is a very good time to start).
Really enjoying this card deck, is helping improve my granny square skills. Instructions are clear, easy and fun!
These are the most beautiful Cohana sciossors I now have in my collection! The colour of a camelia blooming in the snow with the white leather case and silver sparkly star is the most beautiful of them all!
I have used a few of these threads for my sashiko and pleased every time with the results . Although fine , even using them single stranded , the colours pop out against the fabric. They feel so smooth when stitching with them . They arrived quickly too.
This thread looks beautiful on the fabric and fills so well. Would love to have more choice of colours.
