My Workshop
I love teaching!
When I’m not in my studio, I can be found sharing the love at shops, events, workshops, retreats, and cruises.
Februrary
Escape the Winter chill with a Caribbean knitting retreat!
There will be something for every skill-level knitter to learn – and some surprises, I promise…
All you’ll need is your swimsuit, sunscreen, and your basic knitting tool kit: I’ll provide the rest!
