Expert Overview


Sarah Hatton was born in St Albans and spent the early part of her life based in Hertfordshire. Having completed an art foundation course close to home she moved to Yorkshire to complete a degree in Fashion Design at Bretton Hall College, part of the University of Leeds.Immediately after graduating, Sarah was offered her first job as a designer with a hand knit company. It was here she got to develop her skills in knitting, pattern writing and design. Sarah prides herself on the fact that since graduating she has always worked in the hand knitting industry having worked for many well known larger pattern houses as well as as an independent designer.Sarah’s inspiration has a tendency to be garment shape and she rarely works in more than one colour instead focusing on cables, textures and lace patterning.
