Craft Your Own Splendid Dog Lead and Rather Impress Everyone at the Park
Here's a rather marvellous thought: instead of buying yet another mass-produced lead, why not make one yourself? This DIY craft kit lets you create a genuinely gorgeous, handmade dog lead with a charming heart pattern in just an afternoon. It's the sort of thing that makes you feel properly accomplished, even if you've never braided anything in your life.
Why Choose Our Craft Kit
Beautifully Crafted Materials: We've included everything you need, from high quality recycled cotton cord to heavy duty zinc alloy hardware with a rather fetching metallic finish. Nothing cheap, nothing flimsy.
Utterly Foolproof Instructions: Scan the QR code on the pack and follow our step by step video tutorial. If we can make one, honestly, so can you.
Delightfully Handmade Quality: Each element is hand woven and hand sewn without gluing, meaning your lead will be soft, strong, and genuinely long lasting. Plus it'll absorb shocks from sudden jolts like a proper professional.
Fabulously Made for Dog Walking: Perfect for small to medium dogs up to 20kg. The heart pattern braiding on the lead combines with an alternative pattern on the handle for a lead that's quite the showstopper at the park.
Luxury Finishing Touches: Your kit includes an acrylic logo tag and a kumihimo braiding disk. The hardware has that shiny, luxury feel that makes the whole thing feel rather special.
Product Details
Dimensions: Lead length including handle approximately 1.2 metres.
What's Included: Two lengths of high quality recycled cotton cord, heavy duty 20mm snap hook in zinc alloy, acrylic logo tag, and kumihimo braiding disk.
What You'll Need: Scissors, sewing needle and thread, tape measure, and a paper clip or bobby pin.
Materials: Recycled cotton cord with polyester core for added strength. Zinc alloy hardware, which is hypoallergenic and recyclable.

Safety Note: This is not a toy. Maximum dog weight 20kg. Not recommended for strong pullers. Replace at first signs of damage.

This is genuinely the perfect Valentine's Day gift for any dog lover who'd rather have something thoughtful than something from a shelf.
SHIPPING + RETURNS
THE RATHER IMPORTANT BITS
This rather lovely piece ships directly from our brand partner - we work with independent brands who are absolutely brilliant and work frightfully hard to create beautiful things.
SHIPPING DESTINATIONS
Now, here's the thing - our wonderful brand partners ship to lots of different places, but not all of them can ship worldwide.
Some are brilliant at international shipping, others prefer to keep things closer to home.
At checkout, you'll see exactly where this particular brand can send your goodies.
We're terribly sorry, but shipping costs do vary rather wildly depending on where you are in the world. The exact figures pop up at checkout - no nasty surprises!
RETURNS
You have 14 days to return items.
Now, we absolutely adore our brand partners - they work incredibly hard and we do try to support them as much as we possibly can. So I'm rather afraid we have to pass the return postage costs back to you. Frightfully sorry about that!
🌍 PLEASE CHOOSE THOUGHTFULLY:
Our wonderful partners put their hearts into everything they make.
Ordering multiple sizes to try at home is rather hard on our planet and makes things jolly difficult for these brilliant independent creators.
When in doubt, do ask us first!
PAYMENT
We're frightfully modern and accept all the usual suspects:
Visa, Mastercard, American Express, PayPal, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and Shop Pay
SECURE AS HOUSES
Everything's properly encrypted and secure - your details are safer than the Crown Jewels!

We Have Lots More Like This.........
Hello, we are Sostter....
Sostter began, as all good ideas do, with a lively conversation and a shared sense of frustration. Why had the world of independent design become so serious, so samey, so… beige? Where was the spark, the imagination, the sheer joy of discovering something that made you stop and stare?
We dreamt of a marketplace that celebrated difference — where curious minds could explore a world of independent brands, design-led makers, and thoughtful artisans. A space that felt exciting, human, and beautifully imperfect. Today, Sostter brings together remarkable people and their creations — from London to Lausanne, Brooklyn to Berlin — uniting makers and discoverers through craftsmanship, creativity, and conscience.
Every object tells a story, and every purchase supports an independent brand doing things differently. Explore our British makers, discover sustainable brands, browse women-led businesses, find the perfect gift for her, or simply wander through our new arrivals and see what finds you.
This is just the beginning. But enough about us — read all about us, or step inside and see what catches your imagination.
A Curated Marketplace for Independent Ethical Brands
Discover our world of independent brands, conscious design, and purposeful creativity — all in one place.
Sostter is more than a marketplace. We're here to inspire a more thoughtful way to shop — one that celebrates the makers, the dreamers, and the independent brands doing things properly. Every brand on Sostter has been individually vetted for its originality, quality, and values. From sustainable fashion and ethical homeware to handmade jewellery and design-led gifts — all brought together in one considered space. Browse by location, by purpose, or simply wander and see what finds you. Want to sell with us? We'd love to hear from you.
