Review by Laura Cameron Last year I had the pleasure of previewing the Strickplaner (€18.90, review here) which was a planner designed with knitters in mind.

Ink Review: Diamine Coral
Review by Laura Cameron I’m not gonna lie…last year I fell in love with purple and it still hasn’t stopped. BUT it is 2019 so I thought I should give coral a chance. I’ve started my 2019 coral journey with Diamine Coral (30ml for $7.50). And while I’m aware coral is an orangey-pink I was…

My Goals for 2019: Laura

Review by Tina Koyama I’ve tried many so-called waterproof inks that turned out not to be, so I was skeptical about the DeAtramentis Document series.
