Winter still rests over our mountain home as we slowly return to the studio table and new cast-ons. A quiet beginning to the year — with fresh colours, small projects, and knitting at home and at sea.

Three Evenings in Canada – April 2026
Québec City – Totonto – Vancouver. In April 2026, we return to Canada for a small series of relaxed evening lectures. These are unhurried live gatherings where knitting, design, and storytelling come together. During each evening, we share insights into our creative process — how ideas emerge, how colour and tradition influence our work, and […]
