The Strands & Stone mark: a cluster of quartz crystals beneath a crescent moon, framed by crimson blossom, a ball of red yarn and a crochet hook.

Strands & Stone

Stitched and sought in the shadows

Fiber craft, moonlight and the mineral world — made by the same pair of hands.

The Story

A collection of things gathered
and crafted with curiosity

My shop is a collection of raw crystals, minerals and carved stones, crocheted mandalas, amigurumi, dreamcatchers, and whatever else inspiration brings to life.

Everything here is made slowly, on purpose, by hand — or found on a long walk and carried home because it asked to be. There is no line between the two. A ball of deep-red yarn and a cluster of quartz live on the same shelf, under the same crescent moon.

Nothing is loud. The richness comes from the depth of the colour and the care of the making.

What I Make

Loop by loop, stone by stone

  • Raw amethyst and smoky quartz points beside polished tumbled stones on dark weathered wood.

    Crystals & Minerals

    Points, clusters and rough pieces chosen one at a time — quartz, amethyst, onyx, garnet and the stranger things in the tray.

  • A hand-crocheted mandala in oxblood and charcoal wool laid flat on dark slate, with a hook and a ball of red yarn.

    Crocheted Mandalas

    Worked in the round in deep-red merino and smoky grey, each one a slow spiral that takes an evening or three.

  • Small hand-crocheted amigurumi creatures — a black raven and a pale moth — on a dark wooden shelf beside dried branches.

    Amigurumi

    Ravens, moths, toads and things with too many eyes. Soft to hold, a little unsettling on the shelf.

  • A handmade dreamcatcher with dark feathers, red thread and small raw crystals, hanging against a near-black wall.

    Dreamcatchers

    Webbed by hand, hung with dark feathers, red thread and whatever small stone wanted to come along.

…and whatever else inspiration brings to life.

The Realm

I’m drawn to things that feel wild, weathered, dark, and a little unsettling.

  • Nature
  • Animals
  • Old forests
  • Strange creatures
  • Horror
  • Folklore
  • The unusual
  • The unknown

These find their way into what I gather and create.

Dark branches carrying sparse crimson blossoms against a black background.

Found & Made

Some things are found.
Some are made.

All belong to the curious, strangely beautiful realm I’m weaving here.

New pieces are cast on and turned out in small numbers — usually a handful at a time, usually late. If something catches you, it is probably the only one.

Everything lives on Facebook for now — new stones, new stitches, posted as they come off the hook, usually under a good moon. Come and say hello, or ask after something particular.
