Three napkins hanging from the wall

December 2024

  • I’ve just published a new 4 shaft weaving pattern, the Circus Napkins. It’s a fun, colourful, and graphic pattern that I hope you enjoy weaving. Find it for sale in my shop.

  • For the latest studio news and to be alerted to the publication of the Basic Twill Towels, please subscribe to my studio newsletter – you can also read past ‘issues’ online anytime through that link.
