Hello, I am Jo and this is the start of my PGCert journey.

I am an Associate Lecturer at CSM on BA Textiles focusing on the Knit pathway of the course. I predominantly work with the first years running a hand knit rotation in the first term to all of the first years, and then share a machine knit rotation in the second term. Sessions are mainly tutorial based, as well as running crits and workshops.

Outside of lecturing I am a freelance Knitwear Designer, which makes up the majority of my work time, and currently I am working a few days a week as the Head of Knitwear at Julien Macdonald. His fashion show is on Sunday 19th of February, so my interaction with the PGCert will be limited until that deadline is out of the way.
