The Hare in Winter

 

Wife and husband team Nicola and Peter are craftspeople of calm yet playful talent. Well they make me calm, and they make me laugh. And they also make beautiful tactile reassuring homewares out of natural materials like linen and wood, with a fair old dose of joyfulness thrown in. The highlight of 2022 was when they agreed to have a permanent presence in my shop (I mean their stuff has a permanent presence, not their persons. It's hard, but I do let them go home occasionally). If it happens that you can't get into the cookshop to see for yourselves why I'm enthralled, have a gander at their website (www.thehareinwinter.co.uk). They also pop up at pop-up markets; have a wonder-warren at The Crafters in Melrose and - rumour has it - they've even been spotted in distant cities like Edinburgh and Newcastle.
