85 PROFILE PINEAPPLE FIBRE ART +44 (0)7815 790 283 emma@pineapplefibreart.com www.pineapplefibreart.com and colourways for the Gin and Tonic Mandala kits also refreshed twice a year. I can also do custom colourways providing a high enough order volume. How would you advise a retailer who is interested in stocking your products? Send me an email emma@ pineapplefibreart.com I’m happy to provide completed samples for free when five of a colourway/kit is ordered. What sets you apart from your competitors? I use high quality hand-dyed yarns from British dyers, and there’s no plastic in my kits to reduce my environmental impact. Everything is fully charted as well as written out and I’m happy to provide assistance via email if needed, although as all my patterns are thoroughly tested to ensure that anyone who buys it can complete it, it doesn’t happen often! Firstly, the pattern is sent to testers at a range of skill levels, then I send full kits to a couple of testers to double check amounts of yarn and clarity of instructions. Do you visit any trade shows? Do you plan to visit any soon? Not at the moment, maybe one day! What are you looking forward to most over the next year? Starting to hold workshops! Plus, a couple of new patterns I have in the works. What new products can we expect from you in the future? I have a pattern for a 30cm doily hoop which will be released once it’s been through testing.
