Lauren Gates

map-pin Los Angeles, United States

I’m a Knitting/Crochet designer and Textiles Teacher from Melbourne Australia who is another one of us who can’t stop making... ever!

I'm now living in Sunny California with my big doggo, tiny cat and Mr. Seraphym

My designs are functional, classic yet have a pop of innovation or interest.
