Maker Stories

From the studio

Gift guides, stitch how-tos and real maker stories — written by the people who design and make Popsiya kits.

Six kits that make perfect presents — even for people who have never held a hook.

What the labels actually mean, and why we use 100% cotton in every kit.

Ch, sc, inc, dec… a plain-English tour of every abbreviation you'll ever meet.

From zero crochet experience to a finished friend in two evenings — the honest, slightly wobbly version.

Five fundamental techniques to learn before your first kit — each takes under ten minutes.

Gaps, wonky eyes, lumpy stuffing — and the five-minute fixes for each of them.

Stitch first. Save more.
