You’re one of the best designers I’ve worked with, and I appreciate your talent so much. I love this design.
I think you are just a terrific teacher.
What I like most … is the little designer details that go into them, the beautiful little touches that make them unique and a joy to knit.
Holli is a wonderful designer, and her design sensibility reflects a remarkable balance: her pieces are beautiful but entirely wearable, interesting in construction and technique, but entirely knittable. It’s not easy to do, and Holli is a master of this.
I have made several of your patterns, and love them!

Kids Knit Lit: Stories to Inspire Young Makers
There’s something magical about children’s books that celebrate making—knitting, crocheting, weaving, spinning, or even caring for sheep. These stories aren’t just charming reads; they spark creativity, patience, and a love for handmade things.
Class
Knitting Under the Sea
Get ready to dive deep into the ocean without getting wet! This virtual weekend of “Knitting Under the Sea” will be a fun-filled voyage where you’ll master mermaid-worthy stitches, craft a tiny crab, learn about kelp forests from an emerging expert, and prepare blackened fish tacos.
My session is Go Fish Duplicate Stitch Party!

Guess Who?
Wild fingers, bright colours, long life – who wouldn’t want to wear these great gloves? They have a unique construction that creates a very long life line as part of the thumb gusset.
Make a pair for your kids, your grandkids or yourself. Knit every finger a different colour if you want. Self-patterning or hand-painted yarns paired with a contrasting solid or semi-solid look great. How can you resist?

Stretchy Twisted Bind Off for Ribbing
This is my latest favourite way to bind off for toe-up socks. There’s a spring built into this bind off that allows it to stretch over the heel when pulling on socks.
And I’ve got to say, I really quite like the zigzag effect when viewed from above.
