Behind the Fringe & Bow
When I was roughly 8 years old, my grandmother, Jeanie, taught me to knit and before long she was teaching me to crochet. I spent many happy hours watching her knit her way through countless cardigans and around crochet edging on infinite handkerchiefs. From there, a lifelong addiction was born. Throughout my life I have been fortunate enough to be surrounded by makers who
specialise in all sorts of handiwork. From knitting and crochet to sewing, needlework, tatting, painting and woodwork — every person who shared their knowledge with me has shaped the maker I am today. This shop is my way of honouring the investment they made in teaching me everything I know. By day I am a graphic designer and it's been a long held dream of mine to have a brand of my own to foster. Fringe & Bow was developed to create a space for my love of knitwear and my passion for design to merge. I am a keen advocate for the use of handmade, analogue techniques in a digital age. This shop allows me to experiment with my own design style and find my place in the world.
