A former Boston native, she studied at Massachusetts College of Art and then at the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City. She designs knitting, crochet, and weaving patterns for books, magazine publications, and yarn companies.

Reviews

Really good for beginners.

“I got a Zoom Loom recently and I was having trouble making sense of the directions. After watching the first half of this video, I was able to warp it with no trouble and weave my first couple of rows! Overall this was really good for beginners like me; the instructor had a good sense for contrasting colors to use to demonstrate techniques where you could see what was going on.” - Ragan Buckley

Five stars!

“Lots of tips about designing and finishing blocks!” - Amy Stevenson
