K.Moods is a colourful brand, from designer/maker Kathleen Moodie, creating textiles which are design-led, sustainable, made with zero-waste and along the slow fashion ethos. Each piece is created with longevity of the final product in mind, and brings a sense of playfulness to winter accessories. Every K.Moods item is designed, made, and finished by Kathleen - using traditional hand-knitting techniques alongside skills on a domestic knitting machine, she creates unique items which will both keep you warm and add colour to your wardrobe. The colourful knitted accessories bring a bright enthusiasm to design and textiles.

We are an independent yarn maker from the Isle of Iona in the Inner Hebrides. Our range of knit and weaving yarn is made from the collective clip of the island’s flock, which is carefully sorted and graded to retain the best characteristics of the fleece, resulting in a truly sustainable product. Our tweed, woven scarves and blankets are designed in house and made a stone’s throw away by our friends at Ardalanish mill on the Isle of Mull, a wind powered micro-mill running some of the last heritage looms in the country.

I work with wool. Fully fashioned pieces of hand framed knitwear are linked and then fulled, to produce warm soft lightweight jackets , coats and berets. They are stylish yet timeless designs and wear well. I use yarn from the JC Rennie mill in Mintlaw.

Flora Collingwood-Norris designs and makes colourful knitwear from her small studio in Galashiels, using the finest natural fibres. Having inherited a love of colour from her mum, Flora’s colour choices are often inspired by the west coast of Scotland and the Scottish Borders landscape. Passionate about creating an ethical and environmentally conscious business, Flora has spent 2021 creating a book to help you repair and care for your knitwear, which should be ready for Cloth 21!

Olive is a designer-maker specialising in luxurious, knitted accessories in merino lambswool and cashmere. Combining traditional techniques with contemporary design she creates slow-fashion heirloom pieces in her signature colours and geometric repeat patterns that play with perceptions. Inspiration comes from all around from manhole covers and zips to architectural details and ripples in the sand. Olive hand-frames everything on a vintage, manual machine in her Glasgow studio enabling her to provide a bespoke service for clients who can commission their own design or order any design and colour combination to create their own unique scarf.

Based in Edinburgh, Woolly Originals uses domestic knitting machines to create bags for crafters and artists to use for their projects and for their tools. The bag designs are based on a range of ideas and inspiration: Scottish wildflowers & trees; organic fruit orchards; Scandinavian & Shetland star motifs; the volcanic landscapes of Iceland; the Scott Monument on Princes Street in Edinburgh; or the trainee women astronauts of the Mercury 13 program!

Candy Coated Accessories current collections include luxury knitted lambswool hats, headbands and scarves for you, as well as hot water bottle covers for your home. Each item is exclusively designed by textile designer Fiona Ross in the north east of Scotland in her small but perfectly formed home studio. By combining her skills in machine knitting and sewing, the mixture of modern design and traditional technique complement each other perfectly. Her passion for bright colours and geometric patterns are definitely reflected in all of her products.
