If you are new to my shop, welcome! And if you've been here before, welcome back :)
I’m a knitter, crocheter and sewist, and my shop reflects that. Here you will find super cosy socks and hats (because I’m always cold and think everyone needs to be nice and toasty) and I’ve also combined my love of both fibre and textiles by creating scrumptious project bags aimed specifically at knitters and crocheters.
Enjoy browsing, and feel free to message me with any questions :)

5 out of 5 starsBought this as a gift for a friend - she loves it and wears it all the time. The seller was really helpful and sent a lovely message when I asked a question. Many thanks for your help and for the beautiful hat!

5 out of 5 starsThis bag is amazing. It's about the size of a reusable grocery bag or large purse, and structured but soft-sided. The workmanship is so good I keep turning the bag over just to look at how neat and matched all the seams are. I didn't expect my favorite thing to be the seam lines, but there you go. The body fabric is a really nice, sturdy fabric, it's fully lined, and with 2 interior drawstring pockets. The first thing I used it for was cleaning, and I comfortably fit 3 worsted yarn hanks, a spindle, and 8 large knitting needles. I'm excited to use it for a sweater next!

5 out of 5 starsReceived promptly. I've yet to try my first sock, I'm building up the courage - although I've knitted a Christmas sick on ordinary needles (worst part, joining the seam!) So this may go better than expected!

Happy Fibre and Textile Creations
Hi!
My name is Kayleigh, and I am based in Hinckley, Leicestershire where I live with my husband and two overly spoilt cats. I’ve been here for nearly 6 years after living in Suffolk and Norfolk up til then.
My story has developed and evolved over the last however many years since I started my Etsy shop. Through college and university, I mainly concentrated on polymer clay and plastic jewellery and funky little creatures. These kept me sane while studying and gave me a great creative outlet!
In my last year or so of uni, I took up crochet again after years of not picking up a hook. I sold the odd bit here and there, but nothing much. Soon after, I learnt to knit! Socks were the only reason I wanted to knit, and although I now knit more than I crochet, socks are still one of my favourite things to make.
After I moved away from home, and in with my other half, my material of choice, Friendly Plastic, was discontinued. I also had a new job working in a Pottery Painting shop, and so my making-to-sell took a back seat. I dabbled in sewing, but honestly always ended up wanting to throw my sewing machine out a window...it got better as I learnt more about how it worked. Turns out, it was operator error!
Fast forward to this time last year when I began a new job as a teaching assistant in a local primary school. Although working more hours, I found myself more productive and really wanted to get back into the making-to-sell. I’d had so many compliments on my own handmade bobble hat that that is where I started! This year, during the Covid-19 lockdown, I’ve also added my new ranges - chunky knitted socks (yay!), and project bags for knitters and crocheters, including my unique double-sectioned yarn bag.
I hope you enjoy looking around my shop, and following me as my story evolves even further!
Kayleigh.
