A December Walk by Loch Lomond

In summer this path is crowded with visitors walking single file, but in December it’s deserted and peaceful - just soft mist, oak leaves floating in the water, pale reeds, dripping moss, and lichen covering the stepping stones.









Get these weekly glimpses delivered every Friday, along with thoughts on seasonal making, natural dyeing, and what I’m noticing. This is the kind of work we do in The Studio - slow, seasonal making where paying attention matters as much as the finished thing.
