Having been an avid and proficent knitter for over 50 years, I’ve decided to get some of my patterns documented. I’m based in the UK and having knitted through the lean years, searching around for good wool shops and having to design my own patterns, so its good to see knitting and crochet back with a flourish.
My main interest lays in double/aran weight wools and I love cables and short rows, so these will be a reoccurring element.
All of my patterns are road tested before I put them up for sale.
Why not join my mailing list to get blog updates with information on new patterns I have out, reviews of shows and wool shops and a chance to enter my lucky draws. Just visit my web site for the link.
Please also like my Facebook page.
If you use on of my patterns PLEASE post some photos of your projects and comments. Thanks Deb (The Dizzy Tyke)
