Peninsula Craft Member - sneak preview .................

Lynn Dyson-Bruce 
will be exhibiting three new bags - along with various new jackets and even some felted hats! 
These will be in addition to her popular range of fashion items to wear or unique items for the home - which includes her signature 'Dragon Tail' scarves 

Her work has been sent to the USA, New Zealand, Australia and Italy 

Now its quite an achievement to sell a bag to Italy and country renowned for handbags ....... 

To see more of her work : SingularOne Designs

Camellias 
Hand crocheted and felted bag 
The body of the bag is in felted pure Aran wool with felted Shetland wool flowers and leaves - to be lined with Burberry silk in a hot pinnk

Midnight Roses 
Hand crocheted and felted bag 
The body of the bag is in felted Aran wool embellished with 3D felted roses with leaves and curlicues 

Each rose has additional vintage Jaeger silk-mohair in the teal with bronze which gives a subtle glow to the flowers. 
To be lined 

City Squares 
A chunky felted bag in a geometric pattern - because not everyone likes flowers! 
Lots of cushioning for that precious tablet/laptop. 


She specialises in custom made items on commission - where customers can select the yarns they wish and design in the case of garments this may involve three fittings to ensure a perfectly tailor-made garment

Each order requires on average a 4 - 6 weeks to create - unless needed for a special function
