ABOUT KNITWHITS Raised in both England and the USA, founder and lead designer, Tina Whitmore, draws from over 20 years of design and 6 years of professional teaching experience to create original patterns and corresponding knitting and crochet kits. She writes patterns for all levels of knitters and crocheters, with an emphasis on intermediate level patterns.
Her unique color sense and creative inspiration come from an extensive background and degrees in both fine arts and textile design, as well as a lifetime of global travel and an appreciation of diverse cultures and history. Knitwhits is based just outside of San Francisco in Emeryville, California.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Designing is definitely a labor of love, from visualizing ideas, choosing colors, writing out patterns in different sizes, knitting the samples, checking and re-checking the patterns. Each one is a colorful and challenging puzzle. Ultimately, it's fun and it's worth it!"
