classes

i teach sewing, patternmaking, crochet, embroidery, block printing, and more! most of the time i am teaching at various locations in the Hudson Valley/Catskills area of New York (about 2 hours north of NYC), which is where i live. those classes can all be found over on Double Knot Studio (the other ‘knot’ is my buddy, knitwear designer and indie yarn dyer Jill Draper).

every other month or so, i come down to NYC for a few days to teach, usually at Purl Soho. you can find these classes below. please contact the venue for registration and payment. all classes require a minimum of 4 students, so please register early to avoid cancellation.

recently i’ve begun traveling more to teach, so i may be coming to a venue near you! i’ll be teaching at some art/craft retreats which i will list here as well. this page will be updated frequently, so please check back often. i hope to see you in class!

i also teach online classes with Creativebug. you can see what i offer, and watch a video about me, on my teacher page.
