Paula fell in love with all things artistic at a young age, whilst helping her multi-talented artist mother in her Covent Garden studio in the 1970s. Growing up in an environment buzzing with creativity, Paula went on to study a specialist Knitwear Degree at Middlesex.
After finishing university, Paula enjoyed a long & successful career working in fashion as a knitwear designer at a senior level with many of the UK's leading businesses.
Paula decided to follow her long held dream of running her own business & Cocoon&me was born. From the very start, the aim has been to create a brand of beautiful things for like-minded people whilst respecting the people & planet that we all rely upon.
Over the last few years, Cocoon&me have been exploring the therapeutic benefits of crafting, developing our fun, small group workshops teaching maker's skills, & creating our range of textile kits & patterns, giving the opportunity for you & your friends to make your very own bespoke & beautiful pieces.
We also offer private workshops & corporate events.
