I am a textile designer specialising in contemporary knitted textiles for interiors and fashion accessories, with a particular interest in materials.
This website showcases my range of fashion accessories including fine silk fingerless gloves, snoods, knitted jewellery and a range of silk chiffon scarves based on original knit designs.
In the interiors gallery, you will find a selection of my knitted lampshades made from paper, horsehair, wire and silver metallic yarn (as featured in the October edition of Vogue). These have been inspired by the structural nature of these materials combined with a strong ethos to create contemporary products from a traditional craft. You can buy the lampshades at www.knittedlampshades.co.uk where you will find detailed specifications on the individual shades.
I will be showcasing the lampshades at the East London Design Show from 1st - 4th December 2011
