Unravelling the semantics of the ugly jumper, the ratty cardigan and the squishy mittens.

Softness is a poetic reflection on hand-knitting and the neglected objects that give us nourishment. A straggly jumper, shrunken in a hot wash. A frayed sleeve, mended with different wool. A garish sweater, coffee-stained but decidedly unwashed, sent by a loved one to withstand the cold winters.

Punctuated by short key texts from textile studies and feminist theory, Softness tugs at the loose threads of this corner of craft history. This is an ode to the disrepaired, a plea to stem the tide of unloved, mass-produced clothing by rethinking the power of soft things.

Thread-sewn with illustrations interleaved throughout the text, printed in spot colour across three beautiful paper stocks.

Love this- glad I purchased it. Nice weight lets you pull off sheets with one hand. Like the novelty and ease of having the cleaner so handy. Would definitely recommend.

Better than expected
Color: Stainless Steel, Color: Stainless Steel
I have to say, it has completely transformed my kitchen countertop organization. From the moment I unboxed it, the quality and thoughtfulness of the design were immediately apparent. The stainless steel construction feels extremely sturdy and durable, giving the holder a sleek, modern look that complements any kitchen décor. Unlike lighter, flimsier holders, this one feels solid and well-balanced, thanks to the weighted, non-slip base, which ensures it stays put even when tearing off a single sheet with one hand. The spring-loaded tension arm is an absolute game-changer. I can tear off a paper towel effortlessly with just one hand, which is perfect when I’m cooking, cleaning, or juggling multiple tasks. No more awkward pulling or having to stabilize the roll with my other hand—it makes the process smooth and frustration-free. One of my favorite features is the integrated spray bottle. Having a cleaning solution right on the holder is incredibly convenient. I can quickly grab the paper towel and spray my countertops or stovetop without having to search for a separate bottle, which makes daily cleaning routines much more efficient. The spray bottle is easy to refill, and the design keeps it snug and stable so it doesn’t tip over. Setup was a breeze it came fully assembled, so I could start using it immediately. The overall footprint is compact, so it doesn’t take up much counter space, but it still accommodates standard-sized paper towel rolls comfortably. Even larger rolls fit without any problem, and the holder handles the weight without wobbling. Overall, the Ultrean Paper Towel Holder with Spray Bottle combines functionality, durability, and style in one package. It’s perfect for busy kitchens, whether you’re cooking, cleaning, or entertaining guests. The convenience of one-handed tear, combined with the integrated spray bottle and sturdy base, makes it worth every penny. I’ve found myself reaching for it constantly, and it’s made my kitchen workflow so much smoother. Highly recommended for anyone looking to elevate their kitchen organization while adding a practical and stylish accessory.
