Patterns using: Knitting

About me

I am a knitwear designer and military spouse. I write patterns that are easy to knit. Many of them use encoded lace, as I take inpiration from people, places, and things that are dear to me; I then turn them into lace knitting patterns based on an alphabetic code. My designs feature clean lines, simple shapes, and bold colors.
