Hannah's
Field - Designer Maker
|
|
I design, hand knit and crochet objects to play
with, for the home and to wear. Growing up in the countryside I
collected fleece snagged on hedges and fences. Today I work with
certified organic wool from the UK. Each object I design and make
is unique. There will never be two the same. I enjoy working to
commission, making something that is exclusive to you. The soft
things from Hannahs Field have their own playful personalities,
as they grow they make me smile.
