Catching up on some knitting today... found a really cute old childrens' knitting book in a charity shop in Horwich today which has great illustrations! concentrating on adding small sections of colour to create a more personalised look to the individual pieces and make them look more unusual! I've also been experimenting with felting and made a lovely looped belt and continued to experiment with volumes of layers with the looped knitting...






ABOUT ME


Zoe Grace Fletcher Currently undertaking a PhD at Manchester Metropolitan University within the MIRIAD post-graduate department, I am beginning a practice based academic journey into British wool fibres and new technologies within knitwear design. Graduating with Distinction from a Masters in Fashion and the Environment at London College of Fashion, specialising in hand-knitting and the British Wool Industry, I have worked on a number of knitwear collections (personal and external companies), whilst freelancing and researching for a number of exciting projects. My work revolves around the idea of sustainable fashion from a knitted perspective and the different ways to achieve this incorporating the ideas of slow fashion into mainstream society. I love knitting. And wool. And double sided sticky tape.
