Câlin: Hobianna's Own Hoop and Accessory Brand

Câlin is the hoop and embroidery accessory brand designed and produced by Hobianna. It started from a simple need: hoops and stands that hold fabric without marking it, never loosen and adjust with one hand. Câlin products at Hobianna include clip embroidery hoops (tensioned with a clip instead of a screw), the metal hoop stand, hoop covers, magnetic thread organizers and organizer cards, magnetic needle minders, stitchable gift cards, stitchable bookmarks and embroidery books produced in collaboration with designer Berrin Şengöz. See Hoops & Stands.

Why a Câlin Hoop and Metal Stand?

The clip hoop tensions fabric in one move, avoids the ring mark a screw hoop leaves on fine evenweave and linen, holds punch fabric firmly and keeps tension throughout the project; in material and workmanship it is built to be the best of its kind. The metal stand clamps to a table, holds the hoop at any angle without wobble, frees both hands and, unlike heavy wooden stands, is portable; its joints do not loosen and it works like new for years. The magnetic organizer sorts cut floss by colour number and sticks to the hoop edge.
