Nona Davenport

I’m the owner of Nona Pearl Creations - I design knitting (and some crochet) patterns, and sew project bags.

Additionally, my mom, Leslie and I co-own All Wound Up Yarn Shop in Edmonds, WA. We carry beautiful yarn and notions, with a special emphasis on independent-dyers and local artisans. We have weekly classes, free socials, and quarterly KAL and CAL. We love serving fiber artists in our community together.

I’ve been designing knitting patterns for over a decade and currently have more than 100 self-published patterns. My latest passion is brioche, so many of my new releases feature the brioche stitch.

I began as an Independent Designer for Knit Picks. Over the last three years, I’ve focused on teaching and have put out patterns for my students that test their new found skills. This includes designs featuring mosaic knitting, moebius knitting, brioche, and lace. More recently, I’ve designed for the Western Washington LYS Tour, Blue Moon Fiber Arts Socks that Rock club, and have other patterns in the works with some local Indie Dyers.

I hope you enjoy my patterns. Visit my Ravelry Group here, and ask questions, enjoy conversations with other knitters/crocheters, and view calls for test knits. You can also follow me on Instagram.
