Didn't catch the label 



                                             


                               


It was really nice talking to Joyce Bates, the creator of these beautiful contemporary knit products. Joyce designs and makes all of her products from her studio in Nottingham, together with the help of a small family run factory in the Midlands. It is really inspiring to talk to sole designer/makers who have successfully built up their own labels 'locally', keeping the manufacture of their products within the UK. As you can see in this display, Joyce's products confidently sport their individual patterns and are united by their simple graphic styles and their bold, complimentary colour palettes.Joyce certainly has an eye for pattern and composition, and this clearly filters through to the display stand. Seven Gauge Studios made such a warm and inviting atmosphere, that I could have happily plonked myself there all day!
