AP-0016 from 2025 Genevieve Sweeney → Poppy Ruane
Grandeys Place, Green Tye, near Much Hadham, Hertfordshire
Genevieve Sweeney's first apprentice. Poppy came to the studio through a four-month course and took to the craft fast; Genevieve is teaching her the whole trade in-house - the flat and circular knitting machines, the linking that joins knitted panels, and the work of turning a cone of yarn into a finished garment. A living example of the transmission this archive exists to record: a maker deliberately bringing production and training back under one roof so British knitwear skills are handed on rather than lost.
