The new designer behind our hat and cowl accessory set this issue
Meet Chloe, knit and crochet designer, avid book reader and Harry Potter fanatic
First job of the day? I love to start my day with a walk down to our local beach, Swanpool, with my wonderful mum (who I learnt all my yarn knowledge from) and our dog Bella. Then it’s back home for a cup of tea, ready to start the day.
Mid-morning pick-me-up? BBC Radio 2 is a must in the o ce and I love listening to the Pop Master quiz! Saying that I never do very well.
Fave lunchtime yarn squish? I love any yarn with lots of wool in, I just love the smell of it. One of my all-time favourites is West Yorkshire Spinners Re :Treat Chunky, it is just so soft and squishy and an absolute dream to knit with.
Evening knitting project? Whatever design I am working on, or swatches. It is quite normal for me to be up knitting late into the night, of course with a good box set on and maybe a glass of wine.
Crafty plans for the weekend? Weekends usually consist of more work knitting, after a good sleep in, of course, with my lovely cat Meeko snuggled beside me.
