Thank you for providing me with such a satisfying experience.

Loved your clear instructions and the interesting design elements kept me engaged. I was so pleased with how it was turning out that I was driven to finish!!

What a fun and satisfying knit! … And the shoulder wrap made the sweater fit so well.

The pattern was wonderfully clear. I can’t imagine being able to write patterns like that, you are very talented.

I can’t wait to try your other patterns.

Knitting Under the Sea

Get ready to dive deep into the ocean without getting wet! This virtual weekend of “Knitting Under the Sea” will be a fun-filled voyage where you’ll master mermaid-worthy stitches, craft a tiny crab, learn about kelp forests from an emerging expert, and prepare blackened fish tacos.

My session is Go Fish Duplicate Stitch Party!

The Continuation Blanket is a great canvas to display your LGBTQ+ pride. Included are 16 pride flag colourways with yarn suggestions and a colouring page to plan your own unique blanket.
