I really enjoy the design process - looking for inspiration from catwalk trends, vintage patterns, textile designs, nature, in fact anywhere! I then try to get a feel for the yarn through lots of swatching; using texture, patterns, colour. Then I pull all the elements together and add some interesting finishing touches and voila! Hopefully a timeless design that is pleasing to knit
