About Ella Rae's Designer, Leanne Prouse:
Growing up in a home where things were always being created, Leanne Prouse learned the basic stitches of handknitting at an early age. “I never had the patience for knitting at that stage — I’d much rather spend my time sourcing and designing the next project and then get mum to knit it! The first garment I knitted was when I was about 18. I found a design I liked in a magazine and knitted it up with no pattern to follow, but using mum for guidance,” she relates.
When she left school, she studied fashion design and textiles and spent many years traveling the world. She returned to the south-west coastal region of Australia to live and raise her family and discovered the well-known designer, Jo Sharp, lived in the same town. “Looking for another challenge while raising a young family, I approached her with some design ideas. That was a very happy and exciting time; the moment I walked into that design studio I felt like I belonged there. Being surrounded by all the yarn and amazing color really ignited the passion for knitwear design as a career option, not just a hobby,” Leanne explains.
