Helen Sharp, Owner of The Knitting School, has over 40 years experience working in the sweater industry as a designer, teacher and trend forecaster in England, Scotland, Italy and the States. Her design work has sold to companies such as Ralph Lauren, J Crew, Michael Kors, Calvin Klein and many more. “Make do and mend” is an old British war-time refrain, but she truly thinks a garment that has been lovingly mended using visible techniques is better than it was brand new! https://www.theknittingschool.online/ https://www.instagram.com/theknittingschool/

Rosie Casey combines her background in fiber art and apparel design to create one-of-a-kind garments using deadstock and upcycled materials.  Knitting and sewing machines, as well as hand embroidery, natural dyeing and visible mending are used to bring these unique creations to life. https://www.instagram.com/rosiecasey_/
