Introduction	I am a trained textile and surface designer and I make and sell Knitwear, Homeware Accessories, Gifts and Artwear. I upcycle, recycle and make do and mend. I also ride, read voraciously and am a keen photographer. I'm always looking for new ideas and inspiration and never go anywhere without a camera and a sketchbook. I started RoseOak because I had a passion that couldn't be sated any other way. My favourite periods and styles are Rococo,Victorian,Edwardian, Steampunk,Arts and Crafts and Pre Raphaelite.
