Roses & Violets

colourful, OOAK knitwear pieces, handmade by me at my studio in Scotland

Welcome to Roses and Violets. I'm Sheila, and I work from my own studio in the Aberdeenshire countryside in Scotland - you can see the view from my studio window in the photo above.

All of the knitwear for sale in my shop is handmade by me at my studio. Previously, I was a Freelance Designer/Maker of Costumes for Film, Television and Stage. I completed my initial training at Cambridge School of Art and London College of Fashion, after which my freelance career brought work on projects which have ranged from feature film and television work to making costumes for opera singers and ballet dancers.
