Wool is the most magical, beautifully warm, ancestral comforting material that I’ve ever had the pleasure to touch. Snuggly, cosy, warming, water resistant, breathable, it is a wondrous fibre, which I celebrate in all that I create.
Through needle and wet felting, and peg weaving, I create shawls and rugs, divine for wearing and decorating my space, and reclining in comfort.
These are created from the fleece of the animal, harvested each year, which live near to me, and are still alive eating grass in their fields. Welsh Black Mountain and Hebridean fleeces are my favourite I’ve worked with so far.
My deepest desire at the moment is to tan a sheepskin myself.
