It’s been an amazing experience designing independent knitting patterns these last 12+ years. And throughout it, the many life changes, including a fantastic full-time job, have pulled me from my ability to maintain the upkeep and customer service needed. I’ve decided to close the store and retire all the patterns. It may not be forever, but I need to follow my heart towards other projects for now.

My patterns and pattern support will no longer be available after August 1, 2021.

Until that date, please enjoy a closing discount of 50% off on all patterns (no coupon code needed). Thank you for so many years of support and knitting!

Basic cables, subtle lace, and delightful texture ensure that your time is interesting, fun, and quick. Your daughter is going to love this charming little number as much as you love knitting it.

My patterns are filled with beautiful photos, easy to read text, eye-catching layout, and everything you need to know in order to complete the project. Zuli Tunic has both written and charted instructions for you to choose between so nearly any skill level can have fun with the stitch pattern. Also note that measurements are provided in standard and metric units.
