I have received some lovely comments over the years about my products. It is heart-warming to receive them. Here is a selection to share with you:
I spent a long time looking for a perfect blanket to hang on the side of a chair or lie at the end of a bed. I have some beautiful old Welsh blankets which have passed through several generations and I longed to find proper blankets to hunker up in, which would stand the test of time. When I came across Laura’s Loom, on the borders of Cumbria, I knew that my search had ended. – Georgina Williams, Emery House Design, London, UK
Thank you for making the best socks I’ve worn since my childhood when all socks seemed to be comfortable, warm and wooly! – Ian in Lancashire
“We use Laura’s scarves as corporate gifts. If you imagine travelling to visit customers and you want something special, handmade, English, a scarf is ideal. Bottles of scotch is a heavy cliche nowadays. Plus, Laura is an excellent person to do business with, solid, reliable, accommodating. Of course, my wife and I and my mum and at least one sister also snuggle into Laura’s throws and scarves ourselves.” – Matthew Pittman, Golledge Electronics, UK
“We are just thrilled with the throw and the pillow covers. They are both prominently displayed on sofas in our home and we are sure to enjoy them for a long time to come. Thank you so much.” – Carol in Boston, MA
“Just to say a very big Thank You for the lovely throw which I won in Healthy Bag comp earlier this year. I run relaxation/stress management Retreat Days deep in the Northumberland countryside & used the throw for guests to huddle down under during our relaxation exercices. Guests just love it & have said their meditative relaxation sessions are like a warm cosy hug. Can’t get better than that can you!” – Chris @ The Retreat People
“Bought two Howgill cream throws last year and am delighted with them. They wash beautifully and are even snugglier than before!” – Gesine in Berlin for a Howgill Classic Cream throw
“My Bracken Throw received within 24 hours of placing the order. Absolutely perfect, Thank you so much.” – Anne in Yorkshire
“Thank you so much for taking the time to make me such a wonderful scarf. I absolutely love it. The colours are perfect. I really enjoy wearing it especially during these cold and dull grey days we have been having!” – Lorna in Sussex for a handwoven ‘Crinkle’ Scarf
“It’s beautiful, thank you very much, and so soft! It’ll be perfect on the couch near our fireplace.” – Coralie in France for a Tarbet Throw
“…the items have arrived this morning safely. They are absolutely beautiful and I am really pleased with them – thank you so much!!” – Naomi in Germany for baby blankets and a specially-commissioned satin-edged large throw.
“I have received your scarf and I am very very pleased with it. I particularly like the richness of the bright warm colours and the clever design. Thank you very much.” – Graham in Sussex for a specially commissioned handwoven silk scarf
“Hi Laura – it’s arrived and looks absolutely stunning – I’m really pleased with it and I know it will be a huge success. I’m very glad that we (well you!) tweaked the colour combination and I think it will look terrific in the room (I’ll try it out secretly this evening). Thank you so much for taking all that trouble with it, I’m delighted that you are pleased with the result – it definitely won’t be winging its way back to you!” – Tony in Bedford for a specially commissioned handwoven textured throw
“Very nice indeed: soft and simple, exactly what I was looking for” – Marina in London for a Howgill Scarf
“…baby blankets arrived….. they are gorgeous, thank you so much” – Irene in Cumbria
“…thankyou so much for my beautiful throw! It is perfect and will be cherished forever. The colours and textures are amazing it looks completely at home in my bedroom” – Cassie in Surrey for a handwoven textured throw.
“The throw arrived yesterday, thank you for the very quick despatch and delivery. Just wanted to let you know how pleased I am with the throw. I am always a bit wary of ordering on the web from photos, so spent ages scrolling between the pictures trying to make a decision. I needn’t have worried, the colour of the Morar is just what I wanted!” – Kathryn in Derbyshire for a Hebridean Throw
“…got the carbon throw yesterday – absolutely delighted with it! Madder swatch was lovely but just not quite the right hue, so opted for the carbon. Excellent service from you too, so thank you!” – Gail in Gloucestershire
