Patternsy: Where Patterns Come to get some respect
Patternsy: Where Patterns Come to get some respect
Who?
Who?
Su & Mark run Patternsy from home in the Lincolnshire village (UK) where Su was born (and her parents still live).
Both in our 60's, we have done all sorts in our lives (and retired a couple of times!) before deciding to have one more go at starting a business from scratch.
Su is the fibre specialist - spinner, weaver, knitter, sewist etc (plus handling the accounts). She can also do Mark's jobs.
Mark's specialism is the hardware, production methods and workflow (but he cannot do Su's jobs!)

Printed toiles. This was actually the original idea but we got distracted!
We trade as 'Patternsy' but our legal company name is 'Samma Ajiva Limited'. 'Samma Ajiva' means 'Right Livelihood', the idea that how we earn our living should not harm others.(Harm: kill, steal, sexual misconduct, lie, intoxicants)
