Winter Hill is an iconic sight round these parts, and seeing “the mast” means that you are reassuringly close to home! The hill itself displays evidence over 6000 years of human activity, from the Bronze age to the present day. As this is a special sight for so many people we had to do it […]
Here it is – a Tourbillon design wrap on our deep indigo Twilight warp, with a weft of alternating linen and cotton threads. We have used both weft yarns on our Twilight warp before, the linen we called Winter and the cotton we called Spring. So now we need a name for this weft, and […]
Gossamer, one of our original designs, was inspired by the amazing, beautifully geometric cobwebs of autumn. I am fascinated by their slightly quirky angles and lines, and how they all are so very different to each other when you look closely. Our biggest […]
This review is guest written by Sam. She is mum to two boisterous boys and has wrapped them both from small babies. You can find her wrapping blog, including reviews, giveaways and the current wrapping challenge, at www.facebook.com/thewrapdiaries. I have to admit I jumped at the chance to try one of the new autumn releases […]

This is a quad-blend wrap- combed cotton warp with a white linen viscose hemp weft. A thicker wrap at around 300gsm with a beautifully soft drape and delicately slubby texture. It includes some yarn sourced by our friend who finds special, high quality yarns that are only available in a relatively small quantity. Many manufacturers […]
I fell in love with Rosewood Dendron Birch Trees yesterday! We were going to Ikea and I grabbed the first long wrap to hand as we were leaving the house. I knew it was beautiful to look at, but hadn’t ever worn it for a long period until now. It moulds and wraps so easily, […]
Cloth woven on our Twilight coloured warp is starting to make its way into our workshop! Twilight was the first warp colour that we ever used- we knew what shade we wanted and spent weeks searching out objects that were just the right deep indigo colour for the dye house to use as a reference! […]
The weather was just right for today’s photoshoot- the warm sun of early autumn set against the heavy grey clouds…We followed the lower path to the base of Cheetham Close and without having to climb too high, we were greeted by some lovely views of Winter Hill. This is the landscape that inspired both of these wrap designs and so […]
Rust Dendron Curves of Pursuit has a weft of 3 alternating strands of cotton and a chunky cotton merino blend, that create a wonderfully textured and 3 dimensional colour. After the magical 2 washes (in this case in my washing machine on a 40’C wool cycle with 800 rmp spin) this wrap becomes prickle […]
