Gaining Direction..

I've found putting up images on my wall really helps to keep my ideas focused. Rather than flipping through a sketchbook all the time I can now keep looking at my images to inspire my knits.

Bernard Fortet

I found these amazing photographs by a photographer named Bernard Fortet. I think the colour and simplicity in them really shines through. The image with the lights reminds me of strands of yarn.

I've started collecting my own shells to use as inspiration. My mum actually brought back these amazing coral coloured ones from the Cape Verde isles. I think the colour in these are amazing. I love the idea of having soft natural tones with highlights of a vivid coral.
