Knit,Knot,Weave & Felt:

I have been spinning and weaving for many years, after completing a 3yr. TAFE certificate in the late ‘90s. I love creating fabric, from finding the fibres, spinning them into yarn and then weaving them on my 32” Ashford rigid heddle loom.
The whole process is a pleasure.

Beautiful, warm, soft, hand crafted garments.

Made by hand, selecting woollen fleeces and dyed merino tops, alpaca, cotton and silk. Homespun, then handwoven on a rigid heddle loom. Commercial yarn is often used in the warp for strength and durability and to add a touch of colour and texture.

Long scarves and warm wraps, ponchos with knitted collars.

Handknitted and felted hats with individual embellishments.

Needle felted gnomes nestled amongst wenslydale and gotland curls.
