What a gorgeous two days. 🧡

This week we had the absolute joy of welcoming Toni Lipsey Toni | Crochet Inspo & Design 💕 and her mum, Momma Gwen, to Skein Sisters for two days of Tunisian crochet – and our hearts are still full.

Across Tuesday and Wednesday they taught four classes, pouring their incredible love of this craft into every stitch, and into every one of us lucky enough to be in the room. Then last night we popped the champagne and settled in to hear Toni’s story – how she found crochet, and how it has completely changed her life. 🥂

Toni and Gwen, you are the warmest, most generous pair, and so wildly talented with a hook. Thank you for crossing an ocean to share your craft, your stories and your joy with our little community. We feel beyond lucky. ❤️
