About me

Gender Female
Industry Student
Location Bucks., United Kingdom
Introduction I'm a freelance hand knitter and designer. I design samples for sale as well as finished garments. I also write patterns for other knitters to work from. I love to explore what textures can be created by stitch and material and that can inspire a more sculptural side of my work.
