Emma McCorquodale, 2007

I spotted Emma McCorquodale's delicate knitted antique silk garments and jewellery over at labour of heart*. Her work is lovely, light and ethereal.

As they say, she surely is a knitting talent to follow:

... her work is delicate and precious, but at the same time it shows the strength of ideas... The inspiration of her work is the idea of being caught in a space between reality and another world, like a split second, a glimpse of something else. The garments and 'jewellery' pieces are all knitted by Emma in a very fine antiqued silk. Every piece shows details in the form of pointel lace in a scattered random pattern of lace holes adding fragility and delicacy. Emma wants to find a new aesthetic niche, while still remaining wearable and understandable. A knitwear talent to follow!

Go and take a look at her showcase. It's definitely worth it.
