Thread Softly

Thread Softly Every doll and bear was turned out well. When I grew up and finished school it was a natural progression to pursue a career in art.

I have always loved making things and have done so for as long as I can remember, at age six I picked up my first pair of knitting needles and my love for yarn was born.

I crochet anywhere I can grab a few moments and always keep a little notepad with me for scribbling down ideas. I draw my inspiration from the woodlands and coastline where I live in County Wexford. The wonderful colours and textures of the environment lend themselves to the textural and 3-dimensional nature of crochet. I am currently teaching both knitting and crochet classes and hope to continue to learn, share and create!
