PomPom Quarterly - Issue 18: Autumn 2016
Pom Pom was founded in 2012 as a quarterly that would present knitting, crochet, and craft in the modern, beautiful, and meaningful way we’ve always known it should be. Mainly conceived as a collection of patterns complemented by thoughtful writing and useful tutorials, we also celebrate the joy of making, hopefully without taking ourselves too seriously!
Since our kitchen table beginnings, we’ve gone on to feature some of the most well-known and loved independent designers and yarn producers, with some of the less well-known also growing along with us. We are so proud and lucky to be able to say that Pom Pom is now stocked at over 250 locally-owned yarn and craft stores across four continents and 20 countries. At Pom Pom we know that knitters are creative, curious people – so we also include lots of other features we think you’ll enjoy – from cocktail recipes, to dyeing tutorials, to articles about 18th century paper cut artists! Basically anything we think will inspire you. We also take pride in every detail of our magazine, from the typefaces we use right down to the paper we’re printed on – knitters are tactile people after all! We have always been, and continue to be, printed in the United Kingdom.
Pom Pom continues to grow, and we very much value each and everyone of you along with us on the journey! We are so excited about bringing you more thoughtful, beautiful, joyful, educational, and inspirational knitted (and crocheted!) goodness for a long time to come.
Issue 18: Autumn 2016
There’s something magical about natural dyes that we at Pom Pom have always found intriguing. We decided it wasn’t enough to use the odd naturally dyed yarn; we wanted to devote a whole issue to them in all their glory. So here it is!
We’ve got an incredible line up of yarns, transformed by some of your favourite designers into eleven autumnal knits, all inspired by the great outdoors, where leaves will soon be changing colour and snuggly sweaters and wraps will be part of our day-to-day wardrobe again.
