shop Local at TR

Supporting the shop local ethos is easy here at TR, with a range of beautiful goods on display from local producers.

Here, we meet Lily of LilyK.

How long have you been in business? I have been in business for five years. I started to crochet again seven years ago and the yarn addiction let me to selling my handmade products and kits at local yarn festivals and craft fairs.

Tell us about your products: I sell the brand Bobbiny, a 100% recycled cotton cord which comes in 3, 5 & 9mm thickness, you can knit, crochet and macrame with the cords. Bobbiny also offers single and 3ply macrame cords. I have designed some baskets, bags and planthanger(s) and other items, which I sell ready handmade or as a kit. You can find the kits in my online shop LilyK.co.uk.

Why is the shop local ethos important to you? Everyone benefits from it, it’s lovely to see the local community and shops supporting local artisans.
