“Going With The Flo”
In this seasons issue of Vogue Knitting you can read about my design background, textile and fashion career and future ventures. I talk about my inspirations, process and favored techniques behind my decorative fabrics and hand made pieces.
Alongside the article is a design that embodies my aesthetic as a textile designer. The spring/summer weight shawl is knit using a silk/linen yarn that drapes beautifully. The open floral stitch pattern is adorned with eye-catching beads in an array of striking spring colors and unusual shapes. The beads are strung onto the yarn in an organic fashion, and integrated into the flowering buds while they are knitted.
You can find the featured design and article on page 50 in the magazine.
