Nicola Jayne Hall has a passion for crafts that began over thirty years ago, when she was taught how to crochet by her great grandmother. She has followed this passion through various career moves which have included working as one of the few senior female art directors in advertising in London and business management. She currently gives demonstrations to encourage women to share their craft skills and rejuvenate old wardrobe items or create stunning new ones.
