Proudly Canadian!

I am a fibre artist born and raised in Thunder Bay, Ontario, Canada. I have traveled coast to coast of this beautiful country and after living a decade on the west coast, returned home to the shores of Lake Superior - right in the middle of Canada - where I live with my partner and two cats.

While my designs focus mainly on hand knit toys, I also love crochet, art weaving, needle-felting, as well as teaching knitting workshops and classes, organizing and implementing public fibre art installations and collaborating with other Makers.

Thank you for supporting my work! ♥ I hope you enjoy knitting my patterns and that the finished projects bring you as much joy as they have me.

I’ve recently moved most of my social media involvement to Bluesky where you can find me @heliina.bsky.social.

I’m still on Intstagram too! Use hashtag #heliinamurraydesign or the ones listed in the pattern. I would love to see your projects made with my patterns. Tag me @heliina.murray.design or @heliinaville.

For more photos of projects and information on local events I’m attending, as well as other design and upcoming pattern teasers, look for me on Instagram @heliina.murray.design, @heliinaville or on Bluesky @heliina.bsky.social.

If you ever have questions about one of my patterns please send me an email to heliina.murray.design@gmail.com.

Thank you for checking out my designs! ♥
