It's finally here - Issue 3 is live, and we could not be more excited to share it with you! To celebrate, we thought it would be fun to explore some of the designs in Issue 3, exploring their journey from swatch to finished sample.

Issue 3 centres around the theme of Growth and our designers have been kind enough to share a few words about how this influenced their work, and where else they draw inspiration.

I hope you're as well as one can be in these days, and staying safe, especially if you're in a country or working in a profession that's even more affected by Sars-CoV-2 / Covid-19 than most.

I'm popping into your inbox today to share two things: an announcement on what we're doing to make sure you get what you order from us, in these rapidly changing times, and a few thoughts on how you can help other small fibre businesses in these times.

Welcome, to another edition of 'Where In The World Is Making Stories?' - our regular segment where we visit one of incredible stockist and explore their corner of the world! Today, we are dropping in on Judith from Fine Fettle Fibres who lives and works in the UK.

Hello folks! Today I want to share a post with you that we have wanted to write for a while - Our CFS's ('Call for Submissions') and what we look for from a submission. If you are on our call for submission email list (and if you are not and want to be head here!), you will probably remember that we sent out several CFS's last summer. This was because Hanna Lisa was going on maternity leave, and we needed to do a lot of the work for Issues 2-4 ahead of time.

Can you believe it's been two whole years since we launched WOODS, our very first book? Neither can we! It will always hold such a special place in our hearts, and it's so lovely to see that it's still a firm favourite with you too. I was recently having a look at the new projects that were popping up on Ravelry, and it made me so happy to see so many designs from WOODS in there. I decided to round up some of the projects you wonderful folks were working on and show them off for everyone to see!

Nestled on the cobbled streets of Edinburgh, there's a very special yarn shop that we are proud to count as one of our stockists. Run by Jessica James-Thomson, Ginger Twist Studio is a cavern of pure woolly joy, bursting at the seams with squishy wool, fibre and patterns.
