Welcome!

I’m Heather Storta, a TKGA-certified Master Knitter, Knitting Instructor, and Tech Editor. I also design knitwear patterns. I teach up and down the East Coast, and nationally, at retreats and conferences as well as at Local Yarn Shops. I design a wide range of garments and accessories (I love designing socks and shawls) with a focus on clearly-written patterns. I typically only design things I would want to knit myself – I feel that if I am excited about the design then hopefully other knitters will be as well! My designs have been published in Knitty, Knitscene, Cast On, Knit Picks publications, and elsewhere.

Visit my blog for knitting tips and tricks, my current patterns and projects, and lots more!

I have provided lots of resources for new and more experienced knitters here – feel free to look around, and hopefully you can find something of interest.

Happy Knitting!

After this class not only do I understand how each works but I understand the techniques for invisible patch, decorative patches and woven patches. Great class – if offered again I’m thinking of taking it as a refresher.
