kits. Siobhán is a professional designer completing her

Rachel is the maker of Siobhán's designs and runs the general day-to-day of the business.The duo are passionate about providing our customers with a way to explore their creativity. They both believe that creative hands allows your mind to relax. The Modern Crafter's kits are accessible for all. Punch Needle is like drawing with wool and embroidery kits mainly focus on 3 beginner

British Wool for Punch Needle
We pride ourselves on the materials that go into our punch needle kits, which is why we created our own British Wool made from happy British sheep. All dyed and spun in a British Heritage Mill. Our wool has been graded and approved by the British Wool board making it fully traceable and with assurance it is made using non-mulesed wool. When you take the time out to create your own textile art make sure it is using a high quality and ethical fibre. Read more info about our wool on our blog post.
