BRAIDED TRADITIONS: KNITWEAR DESIGNER - SHEREE ROBINSON
"Braids For My Girls" by Sheree Robinson - @Shereerarobinson -My yarn bombing features depictions of the dialogue, phrases, symbols, and pictures that make up our familiar hair language; it’s a love letter of joy to the hair of my daughter and sister. The work uses the knitting techniques of Braiding, Faire Isle, Colour Work and Beaded Knitting.
Introducing Sheree, a knitwear designer who loves to hand make sparkly, colourful going-out clothes and winter accessories. Where possible using end of line yarns so each piece is limited edition and environmentally friendly.
