My Friend Yarn

The colder months are upon us in the Southern hemisphere I have been gravitating towards warm tones and textures. I recently came across the work of Eva and Lisa Holst – a mother/daughter team who design and create handmade wool cushion covers under the name My Friend Yarn.

Eva, who has worked as a textile teacher for 20 years in Stockholm, brings her knowledge of craft and textile design, while her daughter Lisa, brings a design-orientated approach from her career as an illustrator and graphic designer. The result is quite lovely.
