Hello! I'm a yarn, book and music junkie transplanted from Washington, D.C. to Boston to London, where I teach, design, and write about knitting and textiles.
I also co-edit the quarterly knitting publication pom pom.
Read my articles about Regency fashion in the first and third issues of Interweave's Jane Austen Knits magazine and check out my designs for Knit Now Issues 11 & 15, and of course in Pom Pom too!
