It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas, especially in the wonderful world of craft! In the blink of an eye, it will be time to deck the halls and wrap those special handmade gifts. So, with that in mind, we’re here to lend a hand with a wealth of inspiration to help you get into the festive spirit! Check out our pretty patchwork cushion inspired by winter tones on page 14, or hop over to page 32 to see Lisa Horton’s amazing off-the-page makes for men. I have my next project picked out on page 58, this colourful wreath is ideal for any crochet beginners and would work in your home year-round!

If you’re not quite ready to swap to seasonal projects, we have some good reads for you, including a fabulous article about four sewists who made their own wedding dresses on page 17. Our sewing Designer of the Month is Cashmerette, a superstar brand which is all about celebrating curves. We talk to founder Jenny Rushmore about her brand-new book Ahead of the Curve, and this month, you can grab the stylish Appleton dress pattern for free by joining premium during October 2021. Flip to page 12 to find out more.

We would love you to continue to share your makes, upload and tag your projects with #craftworldmagazine so we can interact with you! You never know, your next make might be on the pages of issue 5!
