Welcome to Spindle & Spool where ‘Natural, Slow & Cosy’ is both the dream and the reality. My name is Sue and I am passionate about using natural fibres to create beautiful one-of-a-kind, ‘Perfectly Imperfect’ accessories for you and your home, which are made with love and intention in my little studio in the northern coastal suburbs of Perth, Western Australia. I hope you enjoy browsing and fall in love with something special!
As Anna Funicello once said “Life doesn’t have to be perfect to be wonderful” xx
This stunning crocheted cowl is delicate and soft but will still keep you cosy and warm when needed. The beautiful hand dyed yarns are from 'Ochre Yarns' and they each have a very subtle verigation in colour. The shades in this cowl make me think of the Juniper tree with the blue, burgundy, grey and green combination. These colours make the cowl extremely versatile as it will match many outfits. This lovely pattern is from The Blue Box in Busselton WA.
The cowl is adorned with a simple wooden Spindle & Spool button making it an eco-friendly option, as both the fibres and button are naturally sustainable and compostable, ensuring that this handcrafted item can return to the earth after many cherished years, rather than adding to the enormous problem of textile waste produced by the mass made fashion industry.
