I'm sharing this beautifully written message from The Serendipity Candle Factory who makes the delightfully scented candles we carry. Along with knitting....

"Lighting a candle is one of the simplest acts of self-care...a chance to slow down and be present. A quiet morning coffee. The end of a long day. A few minutes just for you. In a world that moves fast, a candle is a gentle reminder to pause. The smallest rituals become the most meaningful memories."

Are you a knitter or crocheter who is also a road warrior? Are you frequently travelling to fibre festivals, knit nights or just for fun? If you love to take your current WIP with you wherever you go, take a peek at this leather pattern binder, handcrafted by Ukranian artisans. On the right hand side, the binder will hold up to 220 sheets of paper! But, if you want to add a project page to organise all of the necessary tools for your WIP (like you see on the left hand side), you still have loads of space for patterns! If you want the binder to sit upright as an A-frame in horizontal or vertical position, the front panel is magnetised to hold your magnetic chart keeper in place on your pattern. The binder's 1" spine is collapsible to keep it as small as possible for packing. The added project page as shown can hold your stitch markers, scissors, spare needles or hooks, darning needles, needle gauge ruler - whatever you might need! These items are on a pre-order basis. As soon as you place your pre-order, I will touch base with the supplier and your order should arrive within a couple of weeks (although it may take up to 8 weeks). A sample is on display in the studio.

It was a delight to meet Andrea and Jasmine from Natural Ewe Yarns at knit night last evening! Sadly, part-way through the evening, the internet crashed and I spent a huge chunk of time trying to get things operational again and I completely forgot to take a picture. So, instead, I will feature the gorgeous colourway "Everything is Love" in their "GOTS to Have It" line of organic superwash merino wool that they dropped off yesterday! This is a limited seasonal colourway so don't wait too long if you want some.
