LAPTOP SLEEVE
Keep your laptop safe this summer. It would look a bit odd in a sweater so we made it a laptop sleeve. The sleeve is felted to create a thick, dense structure that protects your laptop from knocks and jolts. We used a colour-gradient yarn in pastel shades. It almost looks like candy floss. Irresistibly cute!

WAISTCOAT
No ordinary waistcoat, this design has buttons and ties on one side to accentuate your waist. The yarn is rather special too, as it has a subtle glittery look that makes your waistcoat ideal either to spice up a summer evening or shine at a party.
