AUTHOR: Artist, writer and obsessive knitter Susie Johns is simply bursting with creativity. Although she can adapt her skills to a wide range of crafts, she prefers embroidery, knitting, crochet, collage, drawing and watercolour painting - particularly when it involves recycling and reinventing. Susie has had many of her features and interviews published in a wide range of magazines, in addition to writing and illustrating a number of books, including the recent Knitted Finger Puppets (GMC Publications). If that's not enough, Susie also takes the time to teach her skills to others at the Bexley Adult Education college in London, UK.
