I am honored to be  working with the spectacular

Shirley Paden

along with other talented knitters and designers

on a fantastic new KAL.

As a promotion for the 10th anniversary and new paperback edition of

Knitwear Design Workshop: A Comprehensive Guide to Handknits 

we will be knitting the iconic Pea Coat from the cover. 

I knit this sample for Shirley more than 10 years ago!

It is a timeless garment worked from an extremely well written pattern, with complex charts

and techniques that will challenge a knitter of any level. I will be facilitating this KAL with another amazing designer - Mari Tobita.

The book, nicknamed "KDW", has been an invaluable reference for me, as it is for anyone wanting to design hand knit clothing from scratch, or wanting to be empowered to make changes on commercial knitting pattern instructions.​
