“Let me tell you something about my pattern writing projects. I am not a real knitwear designer, I have not studied this, just learned by myself. I have crazy ideas but no idea how to put them down."
"The truth is that I would have never published decent patterns without help from my tech editor @tuyaknits not only for editing my patterns but for being a great support during those moments I almost lost my hope. Warm recommendation! 💚”
