“Is there a crafter among us who doesn’t get excited by colour? For the creative eye it is a magical source of stimulation and inspiration wherever we are.” – Simy Somer, Scheepjes Creative Director"

It’s been a huge year for Scheepjes as they commemorate not only the brand’s 165th birthday, but also the release of their special edition 10th issue of YARN Bookazine! In order to do justice to this exceptional double milestone, Scheepjes felt it was only fitting to choose COLOUR as the theme of this issue, and in doing so, create a literal paperback rainbow as you flick through the pages, positively bursting with an endless array of colour.

YARN Bookazine 10 The Colour Issue has been created in true celebration of Scheepjes’ love for colour, featuring a special edition open spine and 16 Autumn/Winter designs spanning the entire spectrum to fill your hands, hooks (or needles) and homes with. From garments and wearable accessories to versatile homeware items and toys, this issue offers unique knitting and crochet projects for beginners all the way through to advanced crocheters in a wide range of fibres and styles.

Enjoy a selection of articles written in commemoration of Scheepjes' long history of yarn manufacturing, the release of their 10^th issue of YARN Bookazine, and its colourful theme. Don’t miss the ‘pull out and frame’ commemorative illustrated poem on p. 101, written to celebrate Scheepjes’ 165th birthday and offered as a 'pull our and frame' keepsake for craft room walls of Scheepjes fans all around the world.
