About the classes

When she's not felting, dyeing, designing, knitting or crocheting, you'll find her in the garden, tending her dyeplants, enjoying a nice craft beer or hugging a big mug of builders' tea. And if you're out and about, she can often be found in the mosh pit at a gig or enjoying some folk music!
