In addition to selling yarn, Amy works as a freelance sweater designer and trend forecaster, focusing on sustainable design. She is also the Fashion Director for EcoChic Fashions, an eco and ethical multi-label fashion show organized by the Hong Kong charity Green2greener. In this role, Amy researches up-and-coming sustainable and ethical fashion designers and labels from around the world. |
...the Knit Collage yarns we stock at loop are handspun and dyed and made with gorgeous trim...In the Knit Collage studio bits of ribbons, sequins, flower appliqués, and sparkly tinsel are handspun into brightly coloured wool and mohair fibres to create their one-off yarns.
Knit Collage's goal is to create fun, eccentric yarns for adventurous knitters, ready to take their knitting into uncharted territories. |
