About Ajay Textiles

Ajay Textiles

Leicestershire machine and hand knitter and designer

A long term crafter I finally achieved my goal of gaining a BA (Hons) degree in Textile Design at the University of Derby after taking early retirement. Although I enjoy various crafts I specialised in knit for my degree as that is my passion.

My designs are knitted on a variety of different vintage domestic knitting machines. I also knit socks with pre-dyed sock wool using an antique circular sock knitting machine. With the environment in mind I prefer to use natural yarns where possible, although the sock yarn includes nylon/polyamide for strength.

I am the proud owner of two tabby cats who, surprisingly, are not interested in my balls of wool!
