There is a blog post for Selvedge here.

Also for Selvedge, a short piece about the fishy work of Kate Jenkins’ Stitchmonger project

This is the studio of Sue Bradley of Stroud. I got This is the studio of Sue Bradley of Stroud. I got to chat with her for an article in @goodonpaperstroud this month to celebrate the launch of her latest book Pattern: Hand Knitting Designs from Around the World. The book is crammed with charts and ideas inspired by Sue’s collection of textiles. I remember her previous books fondly from the 80s. For Crafts Alive @rodmartonmanor 10-14 Sept near Cirencester , the theme is flowers and Sue has designed some amazing knitted bedspreads for one of the bedrooms in the house. I’ll be there with my books and darning demonstrations so come and say hello #darning #knitting #craftsaliveatrodmartonmanor2025 @glosguild @suebradleydesign @quickthornbooks

While fact checking and doing final edits on the l While fact checking and doing final edits on the latest book Earth, Fire, Iron, I became totally distracted by @fireandirongallery. This is the gallery of @lucy.quinnell.art who has written a great piece about commissioning artworks from makers for the book. This lovely ‘squiggle frame’ was bought online and designed by @littleduckforge. A place to keep all those shells with holes in that I’ve been hoarding. Now to find a way to display all the sherds from the garden… any ideas? Earth, Fire, Iron: Alan Evans and the New Iron Age is out this September, with an exhibition of the same name in Stroud, and available to preorder from @quickthornbooks and all good bookshops 😊 #artistblacksmith #forging #ironart #bookstagram #collecting #shellswithholes #britishartistblacksmithsassociation @museuminthepark #stroudvalleys
