Hook Line & Tinker is at the workroom!
Made in Wolfville, Nova Scotia, Hook Line & Tinker hand-crafted embroidery kits are produced in small batches in their home-based studio. Each piece of preprinted, 100% cotton fabric is cut by hand. The limited colour palette and use of recurring motifs is purposeful - finished hoops hang well as mix-and-match groupings and tell a cohesive story within a theme. Some patterns are easy-peasy first time friendly, others are for ambitious beginners. But all allow for creativity, experimentation, and of course...calm.
Each kit includes:
- pre-printed pattern on unbleached cotton fabric
- 15cm (6”) embroidery hoop
- embroidery floss
- BOHIN size 3 embroidery needle
- instructions in ENGLISH and FRENCH

Simply Sashiko
We've added a couple new Sashiko books to our shelves recently. Simply Sashiko gives you simple but thorough lessons on the ins and outs (literally) of 36 different sashiko patterns, plus designs for stylish home and personal accessories so you can try them out. I added a little video flip through the book to the online shop. This book is surprisingly detailed in all the right ways so you can apply these designs to the projects you want to make.
