At LoveCrafts we’re building online communities for crafters: homes for makers where they can find their latest inspiration, learn new techniques, easily source all their supplies and share their creations with like-minded makers around the world. Since launching in 2012, we’ve grown incredibly quickly. Our membership in the prestigious Future Fifty and 20th place on the FT’s list of fastest growing European companies is thanks to the hard work of our team of smart, kind makers based in London, Kyiv and in the USA. We’ve been fuelled by investment from Europe’s leading venture capital firms; Balderton Capital (LoveFilm, The Hut) funded our Series A round, followed by Highland Europe (Photobox, WeTransfer) and most recently Scottish Equity Partners (SkyScanner, Matches Fashion). We’re playing with the very best in web, mobile, social, commerce and media technology as we create the perfect digital business for all things craft related. Our team is filled with ambitious, curious, entrepreneurial and occasionally kooky makers. We hire and nurture inquisitive, creative minds looking to flourish in a supportive and collaborative environment.

Lincraft has always been led by skilled retailers with a vision that has allowed the company to diversify and grow, with over 67 stores in Australia and New Zealand. Beginning as a fabric stall in Melbourne in the 1950’s, Lincraft was nurtured by three generations of the Ross family before current owners John Maguire and Brian Swersky established Lincraft Australia in 2005. Lincraft specialises in craft, fabric, yarn, haberdashery, window furnishings, manchester, fashion accessories and much more. We value the ever changing and evolving world of craft, sending our most passionate buyers to the ends of the earth to the world’s major craft, yarn and fabric fairs, with strict instructions to source the latest in fashion and creative ideas, and return with fresh inspiration for our customers. Here at Lincraft, we know that nothing is more rewarding than creating something with your own hands, and once the love of craft starts, it can be difficult to stop! That’s the inspiration behind Lincraft’s “How To Make” series – bags to bolero’s, slippers to hoodies, patchwork quilts to Christmas scrapbooks - an entire library of free projects that are easy to do, hard to resist and available in store or online! Australia’s biggest online craft store is now open for business at www.lincraft.com.au.
