About Lindsey

My name is Lindsey and I can’t thank you enough for visiting and knitting with me (or even just browsing!).

I learned to knit a long time ago, but didn’t take it beyond knits and purls until I was home with my two newborns. I am so lucky to have these two amazing kids in my life, but I found motherhood to be much harder and lonelier than I could have imagined back then (PPD is no joke and I stand in solidarity with the 1 in 7 mothers who experience it in some form). As an avid quilter and sewer at the time, I found it difficult to find the time to work at my machine, so in my hunt for a craft I could do while working two bouncers with my feet, I started expanding my knitting skills.

What I found was not only a task that helped me feel creatively fulfilled and a tangible sense of accomplishment during long isolating days at home, but also an amazing community that was supportive and gave me a sense of identity outside of motherhood.

I started designing in 2018 and I’m delighted to share my growing collection with you. Creating pieces that are as much of a joy to knit and wear is truly my passion.
