My contemporary knits created for the sustainable wardrobe and home are handmade in my Cotswolds studio using the wool from my flock of sheep. I take their fleeces to a mill in Cornwall where it’s spun into a chunky yarn. It is then dyed organically or left undyed for my Fibreshed accredited range. All my products are handmade using a manual knitting machine and require careful hand finishing. They are distinctive and authentic with bold patterns, eye-catching colour and original character.

Focus:
Knitted garments, fashion accessories and homewares

Commendation for enhancing the versatility of British wool

19 April 2017

I recently received a commendation for an entry into the Bradford Textiles Society's 2017 Design Competition. The design was placed in the Knit section, into the category for designs that enhance the versatility of British Wool.
