Aspiring weave designer focusing on tradition and the importance of heritage and craft techniques. 

My passion for weave was something that I didn't know I had until I came to university, not only has it taught me a skilled craft, but it has also taught me the importance of fabric structure, practicalities and colour combinations. All of my yarns are hand dyed yarns to match the colours within my drawings and visual imagery. I focus highly on colour rather than pattern with the key concept of my work being maintaining tradition, but also keeping up with trend and contemporary design. Fashion, furnishings or interiors, my collections range from different weight fabrics and colour combinations for all types of variety but can also be suited to a specific audience and brief.
