Patterns using: Knitting

About me

I use brioche knitting to create brain engaging patterns that allow the knitter to be their most show stopping, head turning self and step out of the crowd and into the spotlight. I want to help you bring out your inner bad ass and encourage the idea of fearless knitting. Fear of trying something new should never hold you back from creating a work of art that you love!

Most or all of my patterns have the following inclusivity features:

Colour blindness accessible i.e. does not exclusively use colour to convey information
Size inclusive and/or size-independent
Video tutorials
