Kate's Plaice the Stitchmongers

Over the past year I have been busy working on an exhibition entitled 'Kate's Plaice the Stitchmongers'

Inspired by my love of seafood and all things fishy I have created an entire fish shop made entirely from wool, wit and sequins. This has been a major project and it will be making it's debut next month at Alexander Palace at The Knitting and Stitching show 7th- 11th October. It will then go on tour to Dublin at the RDS from 12th-15th November. If you wish to purchase tickets for either of these events go to www.theknittingandstitchingshow.com and for Dublin go to www.theknittingandstitchingshow.com/dublin/

In the meantime here are a few images to whet your appetite...
