Dee Hardwicke

Dee Hardwicke is a British artist, designer and knitter whose work is deeply inspired by Britain’s ever-changing landscapes and cottage gardens.

Her sketchbooks serve as a visual diary of her life, capturing the enchanting details of nature. Each page overflows with drawings, watercolours and pressed leaves, translating the beauty of wildflower meadows, drifting clouds and butterfly wings into her distinctive nature-inspired knits. Having knitted since her teenage years, Dee loves turning her sketches into timeless pieces of wearable art that celebrate the union of creativity, craft and practicality.

Her creativity spans multiple mediums, from knitting to collaborations with esteemed partners like the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew and the National Trust, where her artistic vision is brought to life through beautiful flooring, tableware and stationery.

Dee's new book, Cultivate, is a collaborative passion project with Jonna Helin celebrating the beauty of everyday simplicity through the art of knitting. She has also published a nature-inspired book called The Knitted Fabric through Laine Publishing.
