Question From A Reader
"I've just bought some Merino wool and I’m excited to start a new project! However, I don’t know what best showcases Merino. Any suggestions?"
Merino wool is a joy to work with! Its softness and warmth make it ideal for items you want to snuggle up with. Merino's range of weights also offers versatility. It’s exciting to see how different textures emerge, even from the simplest of stitches. Consider projects like:
Luxurious scarves or shawls
Comfy hats
Warm sweaters
Delicate baby garments
The fine fibers of Merino ensure your creations are both comfortable and beautiful to wear. Learn more in this detailed guide to Merino wool.

A Cozy Comic Capturing Fall’s Warmth
Fall has a particular magic, doesn't it? It's like nature has begun to cozy down for the cooler days ahead.
’s latest comic in her Illuminating Letters series caught my eye: a panorama of lit homes that echo the warm glow of Fall evenings. I find something deeply comforting about her artwork.Rediscovering Provincial Cities

The Art Of Pottering
There’s something deeply restorative about a day spent pottering.
