Lithuanian felter Agne Audejiene has immersed herself in the world of handmade ever since she was a small child, learning much from her mother and grandmother.

She loves the process of making, and feels very fortunate that she now has the opportunity to pass those skills on to her daughters and friends.

Felting is an ancient craft, having been practised for thousands of years by many cultures. Agne’s work comes from this traditional base, but her control over form and attention to detail in decoration adds a lovely lightness to its soft bulkiness.

Agne told me her English wasn’t very good, and for now she could only send me pictures of her process and work. But really, I think the work speaks for itself, don’t you think?
