In Lower Clapton Road, Kate Sheridan and Mimi sell their own designer handbags and accessories; Wild & Woolly is a knitting shop with classes — the owner says Clapton is now full of knitters — and Pages of Hackney is an independent bookshop.
Newcomers include P. Franco, which describes itself as a wine shop and bar with seasonal food, and My Neighbours the Dumplings, a family-run dumplings and sake bar.
