Her love of all things 70’s bohemia have always been of interest and then her passion for the art and craft macrame started about 6 years when making plant hangers for her home and hasn’t stopped at pot hangers, also creating wall hangings, accessories and jewellery.
Over the last few years, she has taught many workshops in North Devon and has provided macrame pieces for installations and workplaces throughout the country, including a huge piece for an exhibit at the Chelsea Flower Show, it won a Gold award.
When Lorna isn’t knotting she can be found pottering about on her smallholding near Woolsery, growing plants for dying as well as eating.
