Needles and Crosses

There’s something about wrapping up in a garment that’s been handmade, crafted especially for you that feels both snug and sumptuous at the same time. Stitch by stitch, row by row I take time to make each piece by hand and offer a little luxury to the everyday wardrobe.

On one particularly wintry day I decided that I would like to create the kind of comforting clothes that I wanted to own but couldn’t find to buy.

I taught myself to knit and before long I threw myself into a world of fluffy wool, stocking stitch and knitting needles. Friends and family started asking me to make them pieces of their own and I found a thrill in creating something out of nothing, stitch by stich and row by row with only the recipient in mind.

What started out as a labour of love has now become a lifestyle and I’m pleased to present to you my Needles and Crosses.
