What a show! My biggest take away was how incredibly kind everyone was, and just how many people stopped me to talk about my outfit... I mean it was bold,...

Cobalt 03 with neon pink handles

I had my eye on the cobalt blue bag since they came out. When I saw the neon combo with it I had checked out before I knew it and am so glad. it’s a joyful thing to pop me knitting in, very bright and stands out a mile. Fantastic quality as always. I love the versatility of H&H bags, clip the handle round something like another bag strap or my spinning wheel to store fluff. Stuff a load of random minis in and fold down the sides like a bucket and knit out of it. There are lots of pockets of all sizes, pop a different set of handles on to mix things up. These bags will last decades.

Large leather pouch (cobalt blue)

I have a brown one that I use as it was intended, as a notions pouch which it is perfect for. I’ve bought this one for my daughter for Christmas for her to use as a make up bag. It may not hold all her make up, but it’ll hold all she needs for a top up when she’s out…lippy, mascara, etc and packet of tissues. She loves bright colours so this will be a winner😊

Yet another use …

I’m on a trip to Brussels and carrying two of these gorgeous pouches. One in my knitting 🧶 bag (of course) and the other snuggling in my shoulder bag holding passport, phone, purse and all the other travel stuff I need to hand.

Marine ice dyed 03

This bag has everything. From the stunning variegation of colours from the ice dying to the impeccable stitching, the cavernous insides and my favourite lining of sage, it’s hard to believe this bag was ever in the naughty corner! It’s a beautiful bag to keep any project in. Love!

Perfect gift

I bought the shawl cuff for a Christmas gift for my friend who loves knitting shawls. She’s just finishing off this year’s Stephen West MKAL, and this simple cuff will do its job in style. Especially good value being ordered during the H&H Black Friday Naughty Corner.
