About me

I'm Jacki, a knitting teacher and knitwear designed based in Bristol, UK. I'm all about encouraging knitters to try new things; whether that's stranded colourwork, lace knitting, adjusting knitting patterns to fit better, or anything else. Nothing in knitting is as scary as it looks. Promise. My knitting patterns are easy to follow, professionally tech-edited, and thoroughly test knitted, so you know you're getting a lovely, straightforward knit.

Most or all of my patterns have the following inclusivity features:

Colour blindness accessible i.e. does not exclusively use colour to convey information
Size inclusive and/or size-independent
Charted and written instructions
