Gila Monster Top
Designed and made for an american customer from a basic idea for a top made in a Gila Monster pattern
A Gila monster is a south american lizard with distinctive pink and black curved and spotted design.
My client asked me if I could do her a top based on the skin pattern of this distinct lizard. I discussed with her her requirements about yarn and style and we agreed on something similar to Crabapple but in a yarn that would reflect the reptilian aspects of its skin. I suggested a tape yarn that alternated between matt and shiny in pink and black and emailed her some basic designs. Once she had agreed which of the 6 designs she wanted I drew up the design on graph paper and knitted it up.
Pirate Doll
Made for a customer in Germany for his daughter
Harlequin
A fancy neck piece made from blue and cream cotton and decorated with vintage black beads and crochet flowers with petrol effect beading.
Perfect for adding a touch of the theatre to your life.
This was inspired by the tales of Harlequin or the Italian Commedia dell'Arte and the Nymphenburg Commedia Dell’Arte 2008 Couture Edition that are utterly breathtaking. I love the tales of mischief and mystery surrounding the Harlequin and this piece appeals both to a sense of fun and the seriousness that is needed to create and mould yourself into such a character and mindscape.
