My mum and Nanna were constant and enthusiastic knitters and I learned from them. At primary school we stitched on huckaback fabric, then moved to tapestry canvas. I seem to recall a cross stitched budgie – my first “fibre artwork”. I began serious cross stitching some decades ago, quickly moving to create my own designs rather than other people’s ideas or kit sets. More recently I’ve had fun with scrumble and freeform knitting (some ends up in my fibre art), hand-weaving on a small frame and using rug canvas to create an over-stitched, woven effect.
