Welcome, to this second instalment of Where In The World Is Making Stories! Today, we are heading to Canada to visit our stockist Dale who runs Farm To Cable Yarns. With a passion for natural fibres and a commitment to running her business with eco-friendly, ethical and sustainable practices, Dales stocks yarns from all over the world from yarn produces who share their ethos and values.

As I'm writing this, we are just a few days from closing pre-orders on Issue 1 of our new Making Stories magazine, and it's been such a fantastic week. The idea for starting the magazine came from a desire and a need for change. Over the past two years, Hanna Lisa and Verena had created some truly amazing work.

Dear lovely Making Stories community.

We hope you have a beautiful March so far and are as excited as we are about the upcoming launch of Issue 1 of our new magazine! Before we dive into all things magazine, we’d love to take a minute to talk about some recent changes to the ownership and team structure of Making Stories. We’re dedicated to transparency, and we feel that walking the talk is important, so we want to share a couple of things with you.

Today, I’m so happy to introduce a brand new segment to Making Stories Online called, ‘Where In The World Is Making Stories’! Through the posts in this segment, we want to feature and celebrate our fantastic stockists. For this first post, I am so excited to share the work of Andrea from Laines & Co.

Today, I wanted to show off and celebrate some of the lovely projects that have come off your needles recently. We love seeing how you put your own creative stamp on our patterns! This is just the tip of an extremely talented iceberg and I'll be sharing many more in the future.

Hi lovelies, it's Hanna Lisa here again, for our second part of my 'Behind the Scenes' series. (If you missed part one on working with us as a designer, give it a read here.) Today, I'd love to talk about something that is very rarely talked about publicly in our knitting community, and that is how we as an independent business make money.
