Knit confidently with Heather!

I’ve earned my Professional Knitting Instructor certification through the Craft Yarn Council of America at the Fashion Institute of Technology (FIT) and teach a wide variety of fiber classes in the greater Boston area.

I’m passionate about guiding knitters to success on their own terms, using clear visual and verbal examples. My students cite the depth of knowledge and ability to create a positive environment as keys to their knitting and crocheting success.

Here's what others have said;

[Heather] doesn’t hesitate to demonstrate the specific technique the student needs; but she always follows that with having the student demonstrate the technique herself, to be sure it has been understood. And she checks back with the student several times over the course of the class to be sure the student is comfortable with the new information.

A native New Englander, I’m also an accomplished musician, soap-maker, beekeeper, and wedding officiant. I live with my husband who loves hand knit socks and sweaters, and two Manx cats who absolutely refuse to wear sweaters.
