I am a professional science illustrator and writer, but in my spare time I knit, crochet, garden, teach art, and DIY whatever I can for my house. You can find my work at my portfolio website, but I’m also active on instagram.

Between my two animal companions (one corgi who barks at the swift, and one cat determined to chew on moving yarn) I have lots of help on most of my knitting projects, not to mention fur.

As a native Chicagoan, I’m always looking for patterns that can keep me warm or cool depending on the season, and especially for transitional accessory pieces for sudden temperature changes.
