History

Established in 2002.

Susan Holton is a self-​taught knitter and dyer. Her initial training was in graphic design, followed by a number of years working for leading London design consultancies and later her own corporate design consultancy.

In the early 1980’s knitting became first an interest then a passion. Sue began with hand knitting, but later discovered the amazing creative possibilities in domestic knitting machines. She has been knitting for herself, for family and for friends ever since. In 2002 she decided to forget corporate design and to create knitwear full time, selling directly to the public.

Years of experience in dressmaking and soft-​tailoring have helped Sue to understand garment structure and fit, and to develop flattering garment shapes and interesting styles, shaped wherever possible through the structure of the knitting so that fabric and garment are created together.
