Suzanna James (Knitwear) - The Great Outdoor Man

Suzanna was presented with the Main Undergraduate Student Award from The Textile Society.

Inspiration was drawn from the natural world, specifically fisherman, the sea and surrounding landscapes of the geographical homes to the knit patterns Suzanna researched. 

These knit patterns included the historical North East Russian knit traditions, the traditional Guernsey sweater, Scandinavian and Fair Isle designs. 

Suzanna created a modern and contemporary feel to the more traditional and historical knitted designs.
