A PLACE WORTH KNOWING

A colourful little stop for your favourite hound

Hand-braided dog collars, leads and bespoke colour combinations from Caroline’s Cockington workshop.

For a dog owner, this is a lovely detour between the country-park paths and the other makers. Caroline knots and braids paracord into colourful collars, leads and accessories, with ready-made pieces to browse and custom combinations to discuss. Look closely at the different patterns: even a practical everyday lead becomes something personal here. The current workshop is in the Stable Yard; older listings still point to Sea Change.

The lovely little details

  • Handmade paracord collars and leads.
  • Bespoke colours and designs available.
  • Now at 15 Stable Yard Studios.
