My Mentor

Recommended Posts

This is a friend of mine at work. He's a living treasure, in his mid 80's now and one of those wonderful people who wants to share his work and tell how he does it. I am very lucky to call him my friend. Just before Ron Edwards passed away he printed some photos of Dougs work and even gave it a name: the Kite reduction, it showed a way of reducing strands so you couldn't see where they'd been dropped.

He's a perfectionist. You can see where he'd already undone this work, actually he just picked it up to plait with because I asked to take a pic of him working. Sadly he wouldn't let me take an actual photo of him.

I always come away from his place on a high. He's a great man.
