Interested in a career in the Fashion and Textile Industry? It offers a width of opportunities. All are open to those who acquire knowledge. But, a vital responsibility, as part of that, is the impact of your decisions taken at every stage. Compostable versus Biodegradable? Especially fibre selection, it must be cradle to grave!
Delighted to be closely involved in this really useful event, in person again finally. Hope all the lucky attendee enjoy it.

I am incredibly proud to know Douglas, whose triumph in the world of books has been amazing. A very talented Knitwear Design graduate of Heriot-Watt, his career in the fierce world of Textiles and Fashion has also been incredible. And now, his career twist into the world of novels has astounded all. A really lovely human, with an equally lovely Husband. So I am not surprised. Below is a forthcoming article about an interview we did, which was great fun.
Looking forward to discussing Milou’s interesting use of weave structure. Weaving was my first love!

A really important event, an opportunity for young people to virtually meet and discuss the way forward with professionals. My presentation offered options, opportunities, and potential solutions, throughout the supply chain Let’s have more of these discussions. Knowledge is POWER.
How lovely it was to catch up with Douglas and his amazing debut novel, Shuggie Bain. I was privileged to interview him for the alumni club for Heriot Watt University, the Watt Club. Nerve-racking but fun. Must get myself a new image.
Very excited to announce that this, free to use, advanced course is now available for anyone interested in the design of knitwear. It covers lots of different appoaches, and demonstrates, through imagery and videos, key techniques. Enjoy learning new skills.
