Caitlin McCracken Art
Cailtlin is an artist from Armagh, specialising in all things knit, driftwood, cord and wool to bring nature to the home. All of Caitlin's driftwood products are crafted from driftwood she collects from around the North Coast and local beaches.
“Each piece that I make is carefully crafted and uniquely created to add peace and comfort to the home”
Sustainability is at the core of Caitlin's design process, using quality natural yarns for her knitwear that are good for the planet and for the wearer.
Caitlin has started bringing her knitting machine to the shop - call into Makers House to see her in action. She’s a gorgeous creative talent and we are so excited to see what she does next!

Tarah Graham Design
Tarah is an award winning multi-disciplinary Graduate Designer Maker based in Belfast.
Her prestigious final year show in 2022 explored three
traditional craft methods - ceramics, basket weaving and metal work.
Taking inspiration from the rural and ever-changing landscapes on the island of Ireland - she creates contemporary furniture and homeware pieces utilising skills learnt from the traditional craft processes.
"My work aims to reflect how materials and processes transform whilst creating. Each piece tells a story about its means to creation and the interaction it has had with the hands that made it".
