Some time after my last post, together with producer Andrew Mitchelson who’s supporting me with this project, I’m slowly working my way through a list of people to approach. We’ve thought quite carefully about which galleries and venues feel right […]
I’m now working on the second part of my bursary project, which aims to introduce my own work into new contexts. One of the things that came up in the network meeting in Glasgow was that small-audience work often needs […]
A long time since I posted… For nine months I knitted in shades of grey, then at the point when the first piece was lost, I switched back into the bright colours I was using for that one. Since then […]
So… didn’t manage to post anything more in July – I had to take the ‘month’ away with me, which was interesting – first of all all the logistics of getting knitting needles onto flights (i.e. had to pay for […]
I’m now nearly halfway through ‘Knitted Month No. 3’. For this one I’ve knitted a piece 31 rows x 31 stitches, as before, and each day I unravel one row and knit it onto a new piece. The two hang […]
Knitted Month no. 2 I’m posting this way after the event, but in March I completed the second ‘Knitted Month’ – maybe this is going to become a series. Still working on the idea of making and unmaking an object […]

Thank you Franny, Annie, Rob for your supportive comments. I’m still feeling the loss of the work a lot – yes, it feels very strange when I’m waiting for a bus with no activity to mark that time. I’ve thought […]
So I’m still reeling… I talked about the loss of my work at my artists’ group the other night, realised it’s a bit soon to be thinking about ways to take it on because i still have a strong feeling […]
The end? The beginning? In a way I’m starting this blog at the end. Since the beginning of March this year, I’ve been engaged on a year-long project called “A Year of Waiting”, where I aim to collect up and […]
Hi Andrew Thanks for your distinction between cyclicity and transformation – it's helpful because I am interested in both here. In terms of cyclicity, rather than a 'vicious circle', trapping kind of cycle, I'm thinking more of the 'cyclicity' of […]
This is the last day, and I'm still not quite convinced I know what the end is. For the time being I'm leaving it knitted, though I'm going back to considering the half-unravelled idea. I always imagined that I would […]
