Drawing inspiration from layering and textile, Textile Artist Elizabeth Knowles introduces new elements of knotting, fringing and plaiting by way of 'Un-Weaving' the original vintage textile and re-using  these fibres in new and unexpected forms. Hand sourced and hand made by Textile Artist Elizabeth Knowles from vintage Grain sack approx 60- 80 years old, hemp weave with thin blue stripe and fringe detail.
