Knitting and a deep dive into Georgia’s world of colour

Join Georgia for a deep dive into her world of colour! During your week together, you’ll cover the foundations of colour theory through fun, practical exercises, build your very own ‘Colour Journal’ and experiment with different ways to combine colours in your knitting, from blending yarns to create marls, to Georgia’s unique design perspective on different colorwork techniques. Whether you struggle with colour and are in need of some inspiration and creativity, or you just want to use more of it, this week is for you!

Georgia Farrell is a British designer, with a passion for creating architecturally inspired design for hand knitting and beyond. Georgia combines a methodical approach to visual research with a more organic approach to creative exploration, and she loves to share the stories and concepts behind each of her designs.

With a background in textiles, Georgia skilfully translates her passion for architectural details into textured knitted fabrics. From there she crafts and builds collections of accessories, garments and homewares, to be knitted, worn and enjoyed.

Working closely with Rowan Yarns, Georgia has created several collections including ‘My London’ in 2020, ‘Vivid’ which was part of Rowan’s Platinum Edition Magazine 70 in 2021 and ‘Abstract’ in 2022, as well as her ‘A Built World Knit Along’.

Georgia is based in Essex, to the east of London in the UK, and works out of her design studio on the Hylands Estate in Chelmsford. You can find out more about Georgia and her work on her Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/georgiafarrelldesign/
