Hi! I'm Madeleine Shepherd. Welcome to my textile studio, Knot Unknot. As well as making textile work, I also take photographs and write stories. A new website for Knot Unknot is planned for later in the year. This will be a big project to consolidate my current and past work and will incorporate its own online shop. It may mean that things are otherwise a bit quiet for a while.
