15% off until Sunday June 14th with coupon code “Schafskaelte” (the German word for sheep’s chill, the cold weater we are usually having here around mid June). Applies to all my other designs, too!

“Waterkant” is a typical word from my origin Northern Germany. It means not only waterfront, but also, in a broader sense, the whole coastal region of the North – a perfect name when using a yarn called North Coast Tweed. (And, even better, this word with its parts in 2 languages kind of underlines the British/ German cooperation on this piece)
A huge “thank you” goes to Scotland to The Border Mill!
