"The concept of knitting in design brings the designer, and the wearer, back to the basics of garment construction and production. It enables us to dig deeper into our creative ways of thinking, thus creating better, more interesting works."
"I remember receiving a children's fashion designer kit from my grandparents, on my father's side, when I was about seven years old, which I loved. This small token of love helped harness my passion as a young girl. This is what started and sparked my first curiosities in the needle arts and craft."
