About The Owner
I’m a fiber artist and pattern maker with a deep love for fiber arts like embroidery, knitting, and crocheting. My love for fiber arts started at a young age, when my Grandma taught me how to crochet. Later, as a graduate student in Denver, CO, I expanded my skills into yarn dying and knitting. Once COVID hit, I needed a reprieve from teaching through black screens and blank stares and decided to teach myself more advanced knitting and embroidery techniques. While I love to cable-knit, I’ve expanded my skills into multiple areas to create one-of-a-kind projects that blend artistry with function.
At the heart of my work is a commitment to crafting practical, heirloom pieces that will be cherished for generations. I take pride in offering custom designs, so whether you have a specific color palette or pattern in mind, or a totally unique concept, I’m here to bring it to life. From cozy blankets to delicate embroidered veils, to durable stuffed animals, washcloths, and hats, I focus on creating functional art that stands the test of time.
But my passion doesn’t stop at creating—I'm also dedicated to sharing my knowledge through teaching and pattern making, helping others discover the same joy in fiber arts that I’ve found. I offer classes at a variety of locations as well as provide individual instruction to those who prefer to work one-on-one.
Thank you for checking out my page, and I look forward to helping you create something special!
