About The Author: Born in Germany in 1951, Renata Kirkpatrick grew up in windy Wollongong & in 1974 settled on the Sunshine Coast with her husband Glenn where they operate a small commercial Signwriting & Screenprinting business. Renate can't remember a time when she wasn't exploring the fibre arts. She has experimented with pottery, exhibited & conducted workshops in papermaking, & has won a Fibre Art Award in rag rugging. Five years ago, as crochet made its huge resurgence, Renate's extensive knowledge in Traditional Tunisian (Tricot), Jacquard, Crochenit (double-ended hook) & more recently Freeform techniques has led to her conducting monthly workshops & weekly classes.
