about links

Loumms is made up of Lou and Emmms. We live in South-east London, where Lou has a proper garden, but Emmms has an enormous stash, so together we manage rather well.

Though neither of us can remember for certain, we agree it was probably over a bottle of wine, probably in the Marquis of Granby, that we discovered a shared passion for making things, from apricot jam and barbequed peppers to home-grown tomatoes and container cucumbers to sock patterns and yarn out of camp 70s polyester.

Several years, and many more bottles of wine, later we also made Loumms.

We can be found on Twitter as @loumms,
