Making Stories Magazine features companies and makers who focus on sustainability, transparency, fairness and equity in their work. You’ll enjoy their love for telling stories that inspire crafters to make conscious and informed decisions about the materials they use and the companies they support.
Issue 6 takes a look upward and beyond as a gentle reminder to not forget to look skyward, to see the beaty above, to take a breath of fresh air. The 12 knitwear designs featured in this issue are inspired by the sky, clouds, buildings, trees, texture and light, everything one sees when looking upward. There are 5 lovely garments designs, 3 beautiful neckwear pieces, 1 hat and 3 sock patterns, one of which – Dancing Skies – is designed in The Fibre Co. Amble.
All images are the work of photographer Melinda Dela Costa.
