Introduction	I am at the end of my second year Fine Arts Degree At Sunderland University.During this last year I have been experimenting with installation and sculpture, using the material wool.In my ART 246 module-Methodology of Fine Art I have produced a blog for the first time related to my last semester of work within my related practice. Firstly my pieces containing WOOL, are sometimes imbued with found objects, sculpture, paintings and in installation. My objective will continue in my degree to challenge the convention of traditional knitting by liberating women artists from the mundane domesticity, once associated with knitting and place it in a contemporary, exciting new area within Fine Art.
