Welcome to Our World

We create modern, eye-catching hand dyed one off designs on fabrics and yarns from our studio in West Sussex. Most of the fabric we dye goes into making our reusable nappies and cloth sanitary protection. We occasionally make clothing and other mother and child accessories!

Shop updates are added every Sunday at 7pm GMT.

Information

Real Nappies - All Hours

We sell one of the highest recommended hand made nappies in the UK. Our beautifully made colourful All Hours fitted nappies for your baby or child are available in 5 different sizes from newborn to small child and come in hand dyed bamboo velour, designer prints and uniquely appliquéd designs. Stocks are updated every week in the nappy category of our shop. Please be aware that our weekly updates sell fast.

Cloth San Pro - Slimbos

Reusable wear for women, other wise known as cloth sanitary protection, which is also suitable for incontinence is our second speciality. Available from 7" teenage/panty liners up to 15" massively absorbent pads, there will be a pad to suit most women. They are colourful, pretty and slim where they need to be. Made with a variety of toppings such as minky, and again our beautiful hand dyed bamboo velour.

Accessories

Extra tri-fold and Zorb boosters, pretty reusable cloth wipes, bamboo prefolds, and extra gorgeous bath towels. There are not many items we don't turn our lush fabrics into! We can even embroider and personalise to your specification to make truly personal little gummnut items. We stock extra yummy seasonal cloth items such as hand dyed bamboo velour Christmas stockings :)

Nappy Covers

Little gumnut offer longies soakers and skirties in hand dyed merino wool interlock, knitted hand dyed merino yarn, and our technical Polartec® 200 DWR fleeces. Plenty of choice for the cloth nappying parent! All offer a plastic free way of covering your childs nappy, of course, beautifully! We do have a fact sheet on Wool and Fleece items. But I will discount one myth now, they are not anymore difficult to look after than any plastic/PUL cover!

Yarn, Fibres and Handspun

As much as I love dyeing fabrics, I love dyeing fibres and yarns. I spin on an Ashford e-spinner in my evenings, and work on the sewing machines by day.  We stick to only a few luxury yarn bases, from lace and sock up to DK yarns, which means we can keep the consistency we think is so important to knitters and crocheters alike. I spin in my evenings, or sometimes whilst away in our camper can, I find it hugely relaxing to sit with a batt of fibre making such unique and scrumptious yarn that handpsun is. Our fibre batts are created as one offs on our jumbo drum carder for you to spin or felt with, and are delivered in boxes to make sure they keep their loft.

Colour and Creativity

If there is one thing no one could not love in this world, it would be colour. Colour is all around us, whether we take it for granted or not. Long before this business took off I loved dyeing cottons for quilting, this long term obsession now lets me live my colourful dream, everyday. Many of our colours ways are one offs, which I think make them truly special. To have something that is to be, never made again gives so much extra worth to a product. I find colour inspiration everywhere I look, when I'm walking the dog on the beach, taking notes on the changing seasons, to noticing the new life in spring. Colour is our world.

We hold a weekly stocking in our shop every Sunday at 7pm. The items can sell fast every week, so please do make sure if you have fallen in love with something that you checkout quickly.
