Meanwhile back in the stable of Cath Kidston, the British designer who draws inspiration from all around her, has produced a flock of woolly sheep as tea cosies.
You’d never have guessed, talk about pulling the wool over one’s eyes!
And did she know it is the Year of the Sheep in the Chinese calendar?
Cath Kidston’s spring/summer 2015 collection takes you on a farm stay.
Lying on the grass, chewing on a straw, marveling at the clouds, patting the horses (last year’s animal), mowing the lawn, churning the butter, feeding the birds.
And pouring tea from your woolly sheep tea cosy.
Those of a certain vintage may recall Laura Ashley and her milkmaid designs.
Cath Kidston is much more with her own brightly coloured prints and patterns applied to everyday practical products. Now in seven outlets islandwide.
