Local wool, shaped by hand
We design each of our collections with the intention of creating lasting artwork that celebrates the raw character of local wool.
A study in contrast and structural tension. Featuring dense rows of tight loops anchored by cascading, open-work fibres, this piece explores the transition between tight geometric order and loose organic form. This piece features brown knitted bands, dyed by hand, using old walnut husks from the walnut trees in my garden.
