I have always loved textiles, but gravitated to knitting many years ago when my boyfriend and I were building a house. There was absolutely no room for sewing or dyeing, but knitting made perfect sense.
Years later, I'm still at it and continue to learn.
Here is some of my recent work:
Due to restrictions in the hand knitting yarn industry, my only option for a wholesale account was limited to ecru stock. This turned out to be a blessing! I began to prefer dyeing my own yarn because I had more control over the color palette.
A few years back, I bought vintage hobby knitting machines to help with production.
Even when using the machines, I still find myself doing hours of finishing by hand.
I hope you like my work. If you are interested in a tutorial on dyeing, machine knitting, hand knitting or designing knitwear, please let me know what you'd like to see in the comments. I also write patterns and have included one in a previous post.
