Alison Wake, Textile Artist - Cognissart, Fine Art in Stitch
Living in the heart of the Peak District National Park, I am inspired by the landscapes around me. My fine art works are hand stitched, predominantly using locally sourced, hand dyed wool. Using a free hand technique I “paint with thread and yarn”. Whilst walking the paths and trails of the Peak District I see, hear, smell and feel everything which make the area so unique; communicating my experience through the colour, texture and imagery of my pictures.  
My videos show the inspiration for my works and time-lapse animations of the work in progress
