Louise Walker 

On a recent visit to London I went to the Spring Knit and stitch show, it was my first time to the show and I really enjoyed my visit. 

My favourite stall has to be Louise Walker's 'Faux Taxidermy Knits'. Louise is a London based designer. She creates Knitting patterns and dyes yarns all Brixton. 

 

Louise Walker's love affair with knitted creatures started after a commission by Boden for their A/W 2013 press day at Somerset House. Since then she has been commissioned to make trophy heads for lots of homes, including some celebrities. Louise has also worked for some magazines including Crafty and Knit. Today she is currently working with dermores as an independent designer.

I really like how creative her how is and how quirky it is. I brought her book whilst I was at the show and it has lots of patterns so you can create her knits yourself. They are all easy to follow patterns and they all give you a list of the things that you will need to create them.
