I’ve always believed knitting should be relaxing, not complicated. That’s why I love designing simple, cozy patterns that are easy to follow and, once you get going, easy enough to remember. Life on a little piece of the country keeps me plenty busy, so when I knit, I want to be able to slow down and enjoy it without constantly stopping to read the pattern.
