FOCUS: Special 3rd Birthday Winter Issue of UK Handmade Magazine released today!

UK Handmade is 3 this Winter! We’ve come such a long way since we first embarked upon this journey, walking a unique path with the support and collaboration of some amazing talent. 

The Winter issue of UK Handmade Magazine is our special 3rd Birthday edition where you can find out how UK Handmade came to be. It's live and ready to read online HERE (click on the enlarge button to the bottom left to read it full screen) or support UK Handmade by buying the PDF download here.

As well as celebrating we also wanted to give something back so, with the permission and support of Stephanie Dosen of Tiny Owl Knits, we have launched the Beekeeper’s Quilt Competition in partnership with wonderful Reading-based arts organisation jelly. Find out all about it over on the competition page!

This issue is also jam-packed full of handmade goodness, from interviews with inspirational folk such as one woman crochet revivalist extraordinaire Emma Lamb, the choctastic husband and wife team behind Vanilla stick and the delectable Stephanie Dosen, to gift ideas for people who have everything, advice on making your business greener for 2012, ideas for keeping the kids busy if you're snowed in, a bumper winter events roundup and lots more!
