We're here to help you stitch sustainability into every aspect of your making.
With our carefully curated selection of non-superwash, plastic-free yarns and notions, we have everything you need to get started on your next project - and the one after that.
Here's to a wardrobe of knits we love and want to wear for years to come!
Can you believe it, Issue 7 has been out in the world for three whole weeks! Since our Joy KAL kicked off on April 1, we've seen so many beautiful projects emerging on Instagram, and with new cast-on's happening all the time, we're so excited to see all the joyful FO's emerge over the coming months.
If you haven't joined in on the KAL get, don't worry, there is still plenty of time! It's going to be running until May 30, and all you need is to tag a photo of your progress with #MakingStoriesJoyKAL on Instagram. Before you can do that though, you're going to need to decide what to cast on. It's a tough one, with twelve beautiful patterns with Joy at their core, deciding which to knit first is difficult. That's why we thought we'd bring you a little Issue 7 project inspiration with today's post!
I don't know about you, but I always find it super helpful to check out other makers' projects when I'm planning my own, so today, I want to share some of the stunning projects that were created by our wonderful test knitters.
It's a simple fact that we wouldn't be here without our test knitters. They share their expertise and time to help us to get our patterns ready for publication, and are a seriously talented group of knitters. I've shared a few projects below to get the inspiration flowing!

Hi lovelies! The sun is out here in Berlin, and what better day to talk about one of the most joyful issues we've ever done than a brilliant sunny winter day – meet Issue 13, Confetti & Rainbows!
In Issue 13 – our Spring 2025 Issue – we want to play! Confetti and rainbows, unusually and unconventionally interpreted in 12 new knitwear designs – a journey through color, shapes, texture and materials.
Confetti made out of dried flowers, collected over months from bouquets and the road side. Sparkly rainbows, light reflecting. Gentle textures and shapes, echoing the different forms confetti can take. An unexpected rainbow around the corner, on a brick wall, painted in broad strokes.
Hi lovelies! I am back today with a wonderful behind-the-scenes interview with Caroline Frett, a super talented illustrator from Berlin, who is the heart and and hands behind the new look we've been sporting for a little while.
Caro also has a shop for her delightfully cheeky and (sometimes brutally) honest T-Shirts, postcards, and mugs. (I am particularly fond of this T-Shirt and this postcard!)
I am so excited Caro agreed to an interview to share her thoughts and work process, and what she especially loves about our rebrand!
