Designer profile

Sierra of Pebble and Path loves to wear cosy handknits, and strives to design pieces that you'll love to wear too.

Pictured here is her latest design, newly released: Corrieloch. It's a lovely cabled hat with ribbed edging, worked with DK yarn, and has been styled here with a furry pompom. It comes in one size, but will easily stretch to fit many head circumferences.

Elizabeth Sullivan is co-owner of Sweet Paprika Designs with her sister Debbie. Their yarns are often the inspiration behind Elizabeth's crochet and knitting designs, and she likes to create patterns which are both fun to make and enjoyable to wear. Size inclusivity is very important to her, and most of her adult garments are sized to fit at least a 30 to 60 inch chest range.

We love the simplicity and beauty of her Khione sweater knitting pattern. The lovely texture pattern at neckline, sleeve cuffs, and bottom hem makes this more than just your average stockinette sweater.

Designer profile: Renée Kies Designs

Renée has been designing professional knitting patterns since 2015. She loves trying new things, but finds herself consistently returning to her first love: hand-knit socks! Her goal is to challenge people, but also design patterns which are fun to knit.

Her collection of sock designs is terrific, but we couldn't resist showing you the cuteness which is her 'Hey Meow!' mittens design.

Irocknits Designs likes to surround herself with colourful expressions, friends, and clothing. She also has a bi-weekly YouTube video blog where she chats about knitting!

Shown here is her latest design, recently released: Chim-Chim-in-ney Socks. Actually, it's two designs, because it comes in DK weight and fingering weight versions!

Designer profile

Rachel Beth of RBSCrochet learned to crochet and knit as a child. She began designing patterns while working on her dissertation, and has not stopped since! Rachel strives to try new techniques in her design, and takes inspiration from the world around her. Her goal is to create high-quality patterns which can be customized to suit each crafter's needs.

Rachel's latest design, newly released, is her Strawberry Tea Hat. This is a knitting pattern to fit a wide range of sizes from 0-3 months all the way up to large adult! It uses slipped stitches to create a zig-zag pattern, and works up quickly.

Liz Corke creates patterns for adventurous knitters who are ready to move beyond the basics. Her patterns are relaxing knits for experienced knitters, or a great way to learn new techniques and skilsl for newer knitters, with photo tutorials for new or unusual techniques.

Millie Tansill is one of the many Tunisian crochet designers who have joined us for the first time this year, and we are thrilled to have her. She enjoys finding new ways of putting colour and texture together, and we wholeheartedly love that she does - just look at what she's done with colour and pattern in Tunisian crochet with her Six-Panel Cowl!

Designer profile

Knit Eco Chic's patterns are engineered with intentional details to create enjoyable and stunning projects. They also have an eco-focus. As a result, she has dozens of lovely designs for you to check out!

It was really hard to pick just one of her designs to show off here, because she consistently creates beautiful garments and accessories. We finally decided on Woodsong Camber, because it's such a unique and handsome hip-length sweater, with its panels of cables and lace travelling diagonally down the body, and matching panels down the sleeves.
