VESSELS & PODS

All my pieces are hand knitted using multiple strands of 100% Peruvian Highland wool knit together, felted and hand-blocked when wet resulting in a thick, durable yet supple piece of functional art.

To felt my work I use the process of fulling. Fulling is the process that increases the thickness of knitted wool by subjecting it to moisture, heat, friction and pressure until the desired shrinkage and matting of both the warp and weft is achieved.
Each piece is then organically blocked by hand when wet, giving each one it’s very unique form. 

My pieces represent today's ongoing fascination with color and staying outside the traditional rules. 

Each piece has it’s own one-of-a-kind color story. 

I do not use pre-constructed forms, containers or pots as a mold for blocking. No glue or stiffeners are used. Never!
