'Bugle is where I live and is in the centre of the china clay area of Cornwall.

The design and yarn packs are inspired by the local countryside in Spring and Autumn where we are surrounded by hills that blaze with colour in spring and autumn.

Bugle is a place name that has puzzled many people.

From accounts and cuttings taken from various newspapers and books, the popular theory is that Bugle got its name because of the Regulator coach which stopped at the inn -which was described as ‘attractive to neatness and comfort’ and had good stabling and a lock-up coach house. This information came from Life in Cornwall in the mid 19th Century extracted from the West Briton newspaper. As the coach left the inn, the guard would blow a bugle for the hostler at Bilberry Farm to bring the horses to the main road where they were exchanged. 

Bugle Blanket is a beautifully textured blanket, using some of my favourite stitches and stitch combinations.'
