One of the collection’s iconic pieces is the “Love Knot Bag”, a timeless design crocheted in the “Love Knot” stitch. This vintage crochet stitch, also known as Solomon’s Knot, is under-used in patterns today, but produces a beautiful lace texture which is ideal for shawls and summer bags. You can watch our video tutorial on how to crochet the Love Knot below.

In addition, eight exclusive kits will be available in stores only. Designs featured include the stole pattern in 5 colour options and a set including a crochet necklace, belt and brooch, complete with all the yarn needed to complete the patterns.

The patterns are easy-to-follow and come in 9 different languages (EN, PT, ES, FR, DE, NL, HU and TK). The new kits are now available for purchase on our Online Store.
