Before she took on the title of fiber artist, Elizabeth Pawle (@elizabethpawle) was an interior design magazine journalist. “I had to give that up when I was expecting my first baby six years ago,” says the small business owner who lives in Suffolk, England. “I’ve always loved making things and working with textiles, so I fell back into that when my son was tiny as a means of keeping my brain busy!” Over the years, she experimented with painting and illustration, but she’s always drawn back to working with textiles. “There’s something soothing about working with yarn, about making it behave in unexpected ways and turning scraps of wool and thread into something beautiful,” says the mother of two. “I never grow tired of losing myself in the textures and colors of one of my huge tapestries. It’s a bit like meditation.”
