We had visited a couple of years ago, but I hadn’t really paid much attention to the needlecraft heritage of the town.

I discovered Wolcafé at the Handwerkbeurs in Zwolle, which I visited a few months ago. On my blog I have written a post about the stands in visited and the items I bought, among which some ‘handmade’ leather labels from Wolcafé.
