One of the booths that stood for me was that one Toronto artist Lynn Jackson, who showed her knitted metal sculptures. They were so whimsical and unique. I read on BlogTO that she knits them using copper wire and regular knitting needles. She bases them on childhood memories, creating items of clothing and these wonderful stuffed animals. They would such a great piece in a modern kid's room, the perfect mix of industrial, wistful, and playful.
I loved these wire sculptures as well. I agree they would be perfect in a nursery. Sorry we missed each other at IDS.
