I hope everyone isn't suffering from show exhaustion.
With Stitches and the Spring Knitting and Stitching Show disappearing into the distance there hardly seems time to draw breath.
Especially with h+h cologne slowly appearing on the horizon.
It was my first time at CHSI Stitches and it was great to meet a few of the people I have been talking to over the past few months.
There appeared to be a lot of business going on and hopefully you all had a successful show.
It was interesting to walk the floor and see what was going on.
What was really nice to do was hand out the 2017 Craft Business Awards to some very deserving recipients.
A full list of winners and pictures from the awards are included in this edition, as well as a review of Stitches.
If anyone is heading to the London Stationery Show then we also have a preview of what's going on at the Business Design Centre.
In this issue we ask if paint is about to have its crafting moment – Anna Blewett looks into the sector.
We also have all you need to know about getting involved in Yarn Shop Day 2017 – a real boost for business.
Sarah Hurley takes five minutes out of her busy schedule to answer some of our questions about her life and business.
So there is something for everybody in this edition.

Craft Business is more than just a B2B magazine; it is an industry institution that for more than 12 years has uncovered the latest trade launches and sales trends, while offering business advice aimed directly at the specialist craft and hobby retailer.

Published eight times a year and supported by our popular online resource, CraftBusiness.com – the magazine covers all markets relevant to its readership including papercraft; stitching and haberdashery; jewellery and beading; knitting; general arts and crafts; and media, digital and online information. In-depth features exploring profit opportunities across the industry are complemented by advice from retail experts, comments from market leaders, and fresh perspectives from retailers themselves. Drawing on the experiences of these diverse voices, Craft Business reflects the challenges facing today's craft retailers and offers inspiration, innovation and support for their growth.

In addition to the magazine, back in 2012 Craft Business was able to take advantage of its position in the market and launched the only annual directory for the Craft & Hobby industry, comprehensively listing companies in the industry in one easy-to-use guide, available in both print and online.

As a subscriber you'll receive the following benefits:


•  A discount off the RRP of your magazine
•  Your magazine delivered to your device each month
•  You'll never miss an issue
•  You’re protected from price rises that may happen later in the year
