For as long as I can remember, I’ve loved creating. Yarn, needles, stitches—each project is a piece of me, carefully crafted with skill and passion. But when it came time to showcase my work, I always felt something was missing. Photography never did my designs justice, and as I approach 50 this year, I realized I wanted to focus on what I truly love: designing.
So, I decided to embrace technology to showcase my designs in a new way. Instead of dealing with the challenges of photography—like lighting and posing—I used AI-generated models to display my creations with the App Weshop. This allowed me to focus entirely on what I love most: the design and craftsmanship. Every piece in this book is handmade, created with care, and now brought to life through a combination of traditional artistry and modern technology, making it feel both innovative and deeply personal.

About the Author
I started knitting and crocheting when I was 10 years old, and that early love for yarn has shaped everything I create today. Discovering circular knitting machines opened a whole new world for me, making it possible to turn ideas into finished pieces quickly and creatively.
I’ve written two books dedicated to circular knitting machine patterns, both designed to be simple, approachable, and enjoyable for makers at any level. My focus is always on clear instructions and projects that are fun to make and actually wearable.
I also share tutorials and connect with a global community of makers on my YouTube channel, Creative Yarn.
