Sewing and knitting are so much better when you have the right tools. These  gold-plated snips by British makers Merchant & Mills are the perfect little scissors for the purse or plane:  4" long with 1" blade.  Sharp as an arrow, with a safety bulb end.

Merchant & Mills have helped to elevate sewing to its proper place in the creative world, honoring the craftsmanship it entails.  From well-considered items to aesthetic packaging, Merchant and Mills bring newfound style to the world of handicraft. 

Great tools inspire us to find deeper satisfaction in simply making.  We hope they will inspire you, too.
