A wedding gift in favourite colours. Elements of this weave were chosen to represent aspects of the client's character and her unique experiences travelling the world. Re-cycled Indian sari silk was used to create the border as a nod to her appearances in six Bollywood films! The handspun slubs that stream across the piece are testament to her never ending flow of creative ideas.

Made from: British Bluefaced Leicester wool with a touch of: Falkland Islands wool, recycled Indian sari silk, up-cycled ribbon and my own hand spun yarn.

We are both sitting here looking at the wonderful piece of art that you created for me and are completely in awe. To own something so fabulous is really special. I REALLY love it!!! Thank you so much💕 (Chris, West Yorkshire)

A birthday gift from daughter to mother. The brief was for a wrap with largely neutral colours and with an injection of "something else", that could be comfortably worn all year round indoors or out and about. I chose a soft pink to blend with the natural cream and two colours of sand. The meeting of pink and golden sand creates a gentle coppery hue and the handspun yarn brings added texture and definition.

Made from: 100% British wool blend plus 100% Shetland Island and Falkland Islands wools, with a touch of my own handspun. 

A huge thank you for the fabulous shawl! I love the colours and design and I will definitely be using it a great deal. I can't imagine how much work has gone in to it. It is beautifully made and I am most appreciative. (Marylin, Stockport)

A surprise wedding gift for a young couple, where the brief was for a small throw/knee rug with patterned texture and the colours of lilac/purple heather. Woven in a 'window pane' pattern, each side of the piece offers a different texture. To highlight the paler colour, I included a darker shade of purple in the warp. Freshwater pearls were added on one side just above the short fringe to mark their nuptials!

Made from: 100% re-cycled British wool (paler colour) and 100% British wool blend (darker colour)

I just wanted to say how perfect the throw was that you made. What a beautiful colour and the pearls are exquisite! The pressed heather too-what a special touch! They were bowled over by it ~ it means so much as it’s so personal. Thank you! (Linda, Herts)

A 21st birthday present. The request was for a short scarf in greens, with texture and not too concerned with softness.

I chose a mixture of yarns for the warp to create vertical stripes in a gradation of colours and a variety of textures. The weft is the wonderfully robust and hardwearing British Heritage wool, Exmoor Horn. A close, tight weave that will soften with wear and careful washing.

Made from: British wool/silk blend, bamboo, Exmoor Horn and my own handspun silk/wool/non-mulsed merino mix.

I love it! Thank you! (Rhiannon, West Sussex)

A Christmas gift from daughter to mother. The brief was for a lightweight but warm, generous sized shawl in a mix of favourite autumnal colours. The idea was that it would be used regularly to bring comfort and keep chilliness at bay. The client also felt that her mother would like a plaid or divided squares/rectangles pattern. There are eight colours combined in this piece. 

Made from: 100% British wool blend and a re-cycled acrylic/wool blend.

I commissioned Susan to weave a shawl for my Mum for Christmas and was blown away by what she created. It was a truly collaborative process as I described the colour palette I would like and Susan suggested specific shapes and patterns. It was clear how invested she was and so thoughtful in her approach. I was able to give my mother a beautiful, unique gift that she absolutely loved. Thank you, thank you , thank you!
