I'm a blogger, knitting & sewing pattern designer, author & publisher, and mom to 2 daughters. I am happily living a handmade life near the ocean on Vancouver Island, BC, Canada.

I love to design patterns for the modern knitter and sewer. With their engaging textures, vibrant colors & striking lines my fun, dynamic garments & accessories are destined to be wardrobe staples. I'm also the recent co-author & co-publisher of JOURNEY: A Collaboration (Marian Rae Publications, 2013).
