2026 Yarn Award Finalist!

I'm absolutely thrilled to share this exciting news!

​

I've been selected as a finalist for the Australian Yarn Awards for 2026 in two different categories this year.

​

The Online Yarn Store of the Year, and the Accessory Business of the Year.

​

The Accessory Business category is new this year, and it is truly exciting to me, as a designer and maker of accessories, to have this opportunity to have my creativity and hard work recognised. 

​

​When I started this business in 2021, I never really imagined how it would grow and develop over the years. I'm so proud of the work that I've done, my amazing community of yarn crafters and all the connections I've made in the yarn industry.

​

I feel truly honoured to be recognised in this way and so grateful to the organisers of the Australian Yarn Show.

Why customers love my goodies:

"I absolutely love the knitting/crochet tools and notions created by Lisa of 111windmills. Every piece feels thoughtfully designed, blending functionality with beauty in a way that elevates my crafting experience. The craftsmanship is impeccable, sturdy yet elegant, and I can tell that each item is made by Lisa with care and a deep understanding of what yarn crafters truly need.

What sets 111windmills apart is the attention to detail: from smooth finishes that never snag yarn to clever designs that make even the smallest notions a joy to use. These tools don’t just support my projects; they inspire me to knit and crochet more often and with greater confidence.

Using 111windmills products makes me feel connected to a tradition of artistry and innovation. They’ve turned everyday knitting/crochet essentials into treasures I look forward to using, and I can’t imagine my toolkit without them."

ABOUT

I’ve always loved handmade objects… sharing lovely things from one craftsperson to another… from my hands to yours.

I design and hand-make all my products with love so that you can craft and use them with joy.

​

I love designing and creating beautiful and functional things to enhance your fibre-craft experience. I am always knitting, sewing, spinning and crafting, and basically anything that is yarn or fibre-adjacent.

​

I’m inspired by nature and the natural world, fun pop culture themes, retro and vintage, and curiosities of the world. I love bringing those elements into my designs. I hope you love them too!
