Harri was selected as one of the 24 'Star Textile Designers' of Texprint 2011 in the UK wide competition. She went on to have her work chosen by Sophie Steller for a Spinexpo travel prize and the opportunity to exhibit her work at the international exhibition of yarn and fibres for the knitwear industry, held at the new World Expo and Conference Centre in Shanghai.

“It’s exciting to learn how a show like this works; how trends are put together; what it’s like to be an exhibitor rather than a visitor to a show and how that opens up your connections in the industry even more,” said knit designer Harri Batty
