MY MOM

My Mom started a Material & Wool Shop in Standerton in 1979 and I always knew that one day I would like to open a shop like that. I got the opportunity to buy RASH in August 2016 and so my family business started in Durbanville. The shop then, only sold fabric, haberdashery, Brother Sewing, Embroidery & Craft machines, but I knew something was still missing so we have expanded our business to include a full range of wool & yarns with all the trimmings.

MY LOVE OF CROCHET

My love of crochet was inspired by my friend Naomi from Richards Bay, who taught me how to crochet and I started off with doilies. Off course I was hooked, something that my mother was very proud, as she had to do all my knitting and sewing projects at school.

MY DAUGHTER

My daughter joined me in the business, and as someone who has never crocheted or sewn before, has taken up both hobbies with animation.
