I am a knitwear designer specializing in socks! I see socks in every skein of sock yarn and have devoted my life to setting them free!

I create unique, beautiful, knitting patterns that are graded for multiple sizes.

A well written pattern allows you to express your creativity and focus on enjoying your craft. You will create beautiful, stylish, one-of-a-kind socks for yourself and your loved ones.

I am a sarcastic, nerdy, yarn-loving, obsessive knitter who finds inspiration in anything and everything.

I have far more ideas than I have time and my yarn stash has its own bedroom in our house.

My designs have been featured in I Like Knitting magazine, Blue Moon Fiber Arts Socks That Rock Rockin' Sock club, Knitscene, Love of Knitting and I am proud to be a contributing designer to the books Artful Arches published by Knitpicks and Knits In A Day published by Stackpole Books.

In my previous life I have been a Financial Planner in the Wealth Management industry, worked
