	Short Description:	Associate Member. Crochet and knitted wire inclusions in blown glass forms.
	Description:	My pieces are crochet and knitted wire inclusions in blown glass forms. The Crochet and knitting techniques I use were passed on through the women in my family from generation to generation. My Crystal Crochet series, concentrates on pattern, the repeated stitches and individual actions that go towards the making of the object are visible in the finished piece; this is symbolic of how small actions can build up in to something meaningful. My Crochet series is about human emotion; the need to capture time and memory. My Del Mar series, are knitted pieces that incorporate colour. Inspired by the translucent hues of seaweed caught up in waves and light through the sea, light projects through these pieces creating wave like shadows.
