I’m a small, independent retailer obsessed with all things woolly. I source and sell some of the loveliest yarns from the British Isles and beyond as well as needles, notions and all the latest patterns.

Keen to help knitters of all abilities discover the richness of our woolly heritage and the huge variety and potential of this amazing natural resource, I offer personal service, and a regular programme of knitting groups and workshops.

‘Inspired by wild and quiet places…’ Northumberland artist, my work connects to our natural environment.

I am a professional artist working from my studio in the Northumberland village of Felton, between the hills and the sea, under the big skies. Here you will find updates for what is going on in my studio and events through the year.

The new creatives to join Gallery Forty5 are artist Pam Stevenson and Alison and Amanda from Drift. Both from Rothbury or its environs, they are delighted to be part of our wonderful creative community

 Drift have long produced work to sell at the gallery so regulars will be familiar with their beautiful glass and tiny sculptures. They have recently ventured into ceramics so there is always something fresh to see. They will also be offering workshops so do pop in to book a place or look at their stunning work

Pam is a self-taught Northumbrian artist and much of her work is inspired by the beautiful coast and countryside that she feels privileged to explore and enjoy every day and in all weathers. Pam uses soft pastels, pan pastels and a variety of inks and dry media.  Over the years she has produced an extensive range of prints and cards from her originals and she accepts commissions.  As well as doing workshops with local art groups and working with budding artists on a one to one basis from her home, she has also been running a weekly drop-in class here at the Gallery. She now now has the opportunity to offer more coaching and guidance here in the studio using materials tailored to the artistic needs of individuals and small groups. Visitors are always welcome to call in for a chat, browse the artwork or book an art session.
