Please note the Mini Boxy Totes are expected to ship the week of December 22. Thank you so much for your patience due to a brief internal delay.

Introducing the Mini Boxy Tote, a limited-edition collaboration between Westknits and Thread & Maple — and a true celebration of Stephen West’s artistry. Each tote features a striking, deeply detailed embossing of the Aurora Cabin Shawl motif on the front pocket. The texture, depth, and linework of the shawl design transform the leather into a piece of wearable art, making every tote feel uniquely expressive and unmistakably Westknits.

Inside, a stamped message offers Stephen’s signature philosophy:
“If you’re going to make something by hand, make it grand.”

Compact, structured, and crafted from premium Crazy Horse leather, the Mini Boxy Tote stands upright on its own — open or snapped closed — making it a beautiful and practical companion for knitting on the go. Wide, comfortable straps sit naturally on the shoulder, and the clean, boxy shape keeps everything accessible.

Thoughtful storage includes two exterior pockets and three interior pockets, offering convenient space for notions and small tools.

The interior is unlined, showcasing the velvety underside of the leather. Each tote includes a small wool felt square to buff away scuffs as the leather softens and develops its signature patina.

Handcrafted in Ukraine and available in Teal and Whiskey, the Mini Boxy Tote blends function with the kind of fiber-art flair that makes a maker’s heart skip a beat.

10% of your purchase goes to UNICEF, Stephen’s chosen charity - at no cost to you.

Estimated delivery between December 17 and December 25. Details >

Leather Care Guide

To clean, use a very slightly damp soft cloth and gently wipe in a circular motion. For minor nicks and scratches, you can use the same soft cloth or our wool felt buffer pad, which is included with the purchase of large leather items and is available for purchase as an add-on here.

For optimal results, consider getting the Leather Care Kit, consisting of leather soap and wax, which act as a shampoo and conditioner treatment for your leather. We've tested dozens of products, and the items in the care kit work magic on the Crazy Horse leather we use for most of our leather items, such as binders, clutches, folios and most knitting project bags.              

Note that our suede and Rose-colored crazy horse leather doesn't respond well to this treatment, so it's best to use a simple, very damp cloth on those items.
