Szilvia Burrows is an award-winning textile designer specialising in knitwear, located in Buckinghamshire, England.
Originally from Budapest, Hungary, Szilvia moved to the UK in 2009 to complete her college course in Art and Design and went on to complete her degree in Buckinghamshire New University.
In 2017 she graduated with First Class Honours and was awarded first prize of the Hill Osborne Bursary by the Worshipful Company of Framework Knitters the same year.
