Knit One Weave One - Jo McIntosh - Textile Artist

I am a textile artist based in St Ives, Cornwall.

My work includes weaving, felt making, beading, knitting, fabric dyeing, silk velvet and space dyed threads.

This website contains details of the textile art workshops that I run and my work - which you can commission or buy from my online shop.

My aim, in my workshops is to inspire people to explore their creativity and create textile art of their own. I run workshops for both adults and children, in libraries, schools and community centres. I also run scheduled classes in the local area.

I undertake commissions and supply work to galleries and shops. Please get in touch if you would like a unique piece of textile art. I am a member of the Made in Cornwall scheme, which aims to identify genuine Cornish goods through the use of the distinctive logo.

Please enjoy my website. I hope that it inspires you to join a workshop, book one for your school or community group, or simply try out a textile project of your own !
