We welcomed Jo Thompson from Morley College today. She gave a lovely talk about how she got into machine knitting and her progress from student through until today via making garments and swatches for a living and supplying a knitwear boutiques in the USA and elsewhere with beautiful hand crafted garments of her own design.
We were fascinated by the variety and originality of swatches she had brought along and the examples from the student’s work she had collected together from the class she now teaches in experimental machine knitting.
Here are a selection of items from the huge pile of exciting items she brought to show us.
There are a variety of hats here with different styles of decoration.
