A new workshop resource
Fold & Awl is an independent leathercraft project started by Ben. The aim is to make the route from an idea to a useful object easier to follow, with practical guides and a growing collection of original patterns.
Clear about what is ready
The guides are available to read now. Cardholder Pattern 01 is a seven-page pack with full-size templates, dimensioned drawings and visual assembly instructions. Online purchasing is not open yet; further designs are in development.
Designed to be your own
The projects focus on familiar, useful forms: wallets, cardholders and everyday pouches. Leather, colour and finishing choices can give each make its own character.
A separate home for the craft
Fold & Awl is the educational and pattern project. Ben’s personal leatherwork portfolio lives separately at MUSIO; that portfolio may require sign-in.
About the imagery
The workshop image is AI-generated editorial illustration. Product drawings are original illustrative studies, not photographs of finished goods or templates to cut from.
