For me, colour and texture rule and most of the inspiration feeding my imagination comes from the natural world. I see knitting as art, as viable as any other, and no matter what the tool or preferred palette, in human hands, magic happens.

Recent Comments What a wonderful trip ! And so close-by .... And the time of year is perfect for a visit to Spain! I can see the JT/Amal group gathering around Gehry's Olympic Fish http://www.aviewoncities.com/barcelona/fish.htm - knitting with a view of the Mediterranean Sea - Just wanted to mention that Ryan Air is operating flights from London-Gatwick to Alicante, priced at ca. English Pounds 30. There's a good train connection between Heathrow and Gatwick.
