This amazing, wonderful, diverse world is my inspiration, full of pearls of wisdom. I feel so lucky to be able to use all my senses and my hands and feet to make beautiful things.
I use a lot of old tools because they are the best for the jobs in hand and are human powered. Why use electricity needlessly, when you can create a better product without. An example is my Victorian sock machine, named, Cranky, because of the sound she makes. Then there is Angus, a huge floor loom brought to Devon from Scotland 3 generations ago. Each has a history and motivates me. I feel very humble when I look at the brilliance and genius of the creators of these tools.
I have a mobile studio in which I work the looms which all my friends call ' the sweat shop', sock making and spinning takes place by the wood burner in winter and outside under the tree in summer and basketry is definitely outdoors. Oh, yes, I do have really pretty, clever pussy cats who help every step of the way !
Thank you so much for all your support of this small business and for taking the time to visit.
