Wrap up warm in a Himalayan Jacket
Are you feeling a little chilly, just can't keep warm? Then it's time to invest in one of our lovely handknitted Himalayan Jackets. They are knitted by Tibetan Refugees living around the Kathmandu Valley from proper 100% sheep wool. Our Jackets are then fleece lined making them doubly warm and very soft on the skin. We design them in Cambridge and our Fair Trade Producers make them in the Kathmandu Valley. They come in a variety of designs in both adult and children's sizes.

Make this a Fair Trade Christmas
This Christmas when you are buying your Christmas Presents, try and spare a thought for the people who actually make the stuff that you buy.
By Buying Fair Trade you can guarentee that they are being paid decent wages, have decent working conditions and that the goods that you buy are not made by Children.

Wrap up in our Winter Woolies!
Our ever poular winter woolies are back in stock!
We have slipper socks ( with hard wearing felt soles, as our knitters are budhist and do not beleive in using animal products). We have lovely handknitted scarves with pockets, fingerless gloves with mitten covers and our best selling fleece lined earflap hats.All our woolies are handknitted by Tibetan Refugess living around the Kathmandu Valley in Nepal from 100% natural wool. Funnily enough they used to use yak wool but our customers complained that they were too itchy, so now we use New Zealand Wool. It's sent over in big bales which is spun and dyed in Nepal, now that globalisation!

Let there be light!
We don't just sell clothes we have a massive selection of lovely fair trade craft items for the home in our One World at Home Dept.
I was up in the North of Thailand in the spring and found these beautiful handmade lights. We have six different designs, they are made from handspun cotton and decorated with bamboo & bourganvillea leaves.
We also have beautiful vases, trays, candles, handmade paper notebooks and much much more...
