story

My name is Kimberley and I am a textile artist specialising in crochet. I get inspiration from going on hikes in nature.

I’m really interested in cells and like cellular forms and things that we can't see. And kind of using crochet to enlarge that form.

Moss growing on a boulder, tree bark, simplicity and complexity kind of coming together. Trying to emulate that in a garment is a really fun challenge.

I started the community aspect to understand what it means to create genuine connection with people. I find it a very healing process.

You can kind of sit in silence with someone and crochet. Also it’s quite a space that can evoke conversation too.

I really love getting more people into this timeless craft and allowing them to feel grounded.
