Criss Cross is based on a book-sized black and orange old wool fragment from Anatolia that Susan Deliss found rummaging among kilims in Istanbul. It had been bound round two edges and didn't have an obvious purpose but the strangely contemporary and original pattern intrigued her. She felt it would suit a more contemporary palette so worked with lots of yarn colours and did a lot of sampling with her weavers until she felt happy that all the colours suited the pattern and would look balanced on upholstery. A labour of curiosity and love.
