Theme: Heirloom
As we’re moving into our 10th issue, we’d love to explore a theme with you that is at the very heart of Making Stories: To make something we’ll love and wear for years to come.
Put into one word: Heirloom.
Our designers drew inspiration from beloved heirlooms that were passed down to you or by the things they cannot wait to wear over and over again.
We're always excited to talk yarn and knitting and answer any questions you might have!

We print on 100% recycled paper – and we are super proud to have found one that lets our photos and patterns shine!
They're crisp and true to their original colors. The secret? Our awesome printer, Königsdruck Berlin (local to us, yay!)
They work with an LED-offset printing machine that dries the ink right after it's applied to the paper. That way, it can't sink in and the colors stay as glowy and beautiful as possible.
The best part though? The machine is completely climate-neutral.
We started Making Stories because we deeply believe in the power of two things: sustainability and knitting.
Stitching sustainability into every aspect of life (and business) can not only help us save this beautiful planet, but also lead a more fulfilling life.
That being said, we believe sustainability looks different for everyone. Finding what exactly it means for you and making decisions that reflect that in your daily life is incredibly empowering.
We're here to help you with that in your favorite pastime, knitting.
