ANNA WILKINSON is a leading designer in the new young knitting pack with an instinctive sense for both form and color. A recent textile design graduate from the Winchester School of Art, in 2009 Anna was awarded the coveted Gold in the Knitted Textile Awards by the UK Handknitting Association for her collection of vintage-inspired hand knits. Although influenced by traditional knitting techniques, Anna's designs are characterized by exceptionally flattering garment shapes with quirky combinations of color and pattern. When not designing garments, she also works for an internationally renowned London print studio sourcing and designing fabric and knitwear samples for major fashion houses.
