Ompompom is a machine knitting textile design business based in the seaside town of Hastings UK. All products are designed, knitted, sewn and finished by me, Sally Underwood

Knitting on a vintage brother machine and using a knitwear design programme I have been knitting and felting textiles for many years. Using only lambswool sourced from the UK from one supplier to enable a regular finish. I use lambswool as it is soft and can create bold flat colour.

My pieces are influenced by my use of colour ranging from extremely colourful geometric and bold to more understated with pops of colour and geometric shapes influenced from the dinks of colour popping on the fisherman's beach in Hastings on a gloomy day. A tangled rope design is my current inspiration for a bomber jacket cardigan.

Using a fair isle technique the products create an interesting textile inside too.

I create fishermen smock jumpers, cardigans and coatigans as well as scarves, hats, fingerless mittens and bags and hot water bottle covers and cushions in homewares. Designs are changing all the time as I love developing new ideas but I am able to reproduce products which have been sold.

Prices range from £25 - £310
