Knitted and crocheted pieces are individually created and connected in an intricate and time-consuming patchwork/ collage process. This is a one-off piece, vibrantly coloured, highly tactile and soft to the touch. Multiple yarns are blended to create a variety of colours and textures with geometric patterns and textural crochet techniques. The top and bottom edges are fringed with hand knotted tassels. The palette includes neon yellow , olive, deep burgundy and navy, contrasting with black, ecru and neutrals.
This piece can be displayed as a wall hanging or a throw blanket.
Luxurious blends of predominantly sheep's wool yarns are hand-worked with accents of speciality yarns, mohair and super-synthetics.
Paris Essex work is hand-crafted by two textile artists, in East London.
This piece is one of a series of figurative 'Crazy Blankets' merging fantasy and reality, inspired by the disparate cultures and characters within the urban environment, tv, art and childhood memories. Recent work has been exhibited in Los Angeles, New York, London , Margate, Barcelona, Lithuania and China, Milan and Paris.
'Medicine Man' has been exhibited at the London Design Festival and in Zhejiang Art Museum, Hangzhou, China.
Paris Essex is a partnership between Essex girl, Carolyn Clewer and Parisienne, Tiphaine de Lussy. Creative collaboration between the two knit and textiles specialists began decades ago at the Royal College of Art, London, UK. They work in a space where distinctions between craft, design, fine art and low culture are blurred and of equal worth.

Paris Essex
Paris Essex is a partnership between Essex girl, Carolyn Clewer and Parisienne, Tiphaine de Lussy. Creative collaboration between the two knit and textiles specialists began when they met at the Royal College of Art, London and they have been creating textile art pieces as Paris Essex since 2015. The artists create each piece individually, revisiting the craft and clichés of knitting and crochet, working with combinations of hand and domestic machine techniques. They share a visual language and are drawn to the materials, processes and pace of fashion. They work in a space where distinctions between craft, design, fine art, and low culture are blurred and of equal worth. A Paris Essex "Crazy Blanket" represents a creative dialogue between Clewer and de Lussy; typically beginning by working separately using crochet and knit, then passing pieces back and forth, building one off pieces using luxurious and vibrant blends of wool , mohair and speciality yarns. Pieces are created like collages or paintings, mixing colours and textures with yarns and technical processes. Paris Essex recent work has been exhibited in Los Angeles, New York, London , Margate, Barcelona, Lithuania and China, participated in fashion shows in Milan and Paris, designed for Dutch homeware firm ‘Kitsch Kitchen’ and collaborated with the global fashion software company ‘Unmade’, the British heritage men’s label ‘Wolsey’ and Australian fashion brand ‘Romance Was Born’.
