Here you will be able to read about the knitwear I make and sell, and see the photos. I mainly knit with Shetland Wool,with which I make lace scarves. I love Manos del Uruguay, which is a mixture of wool and silk, hand-spun by a women's co-operative in Uruguay. I have recently started a new range of Opera Shawls - these are all named after characters in Opera, and knitted either in Kidsilk, a mixture of Mohair and silk, or in Shetland Lace.

Arts and Crafts Fair, Red House, Bexleyheath, 14-15 July 2012
Arts and crafts fair in the garden at Red House, Iconic Arts and Crafts home of William Morris -- writer, artist, craftsman and socialist
Over the weekend of 14-15 July local craftsmen and women will be exhibiting and selling their own work. You can ask them all about it and take home something not found in the high street. You can also buy the distinctive Morris & Co textiles. With Red House as the backdrop it makes for a great day out.
Adult £2, National Trust members free.
I am delighted to say that I have been invited to exhibit and sell my own knitwear at this fair. Here are some examples of my work - these are two of my new line of Opera Shawls, Mimi and the Queen of the Night -
