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;

I have seen Heather’s skill at recognizing the abilities of the individual students, bringing each one along at her own speed. She has also shown sensitivity to each student’s need to feel successful, providing warm encouragement to the students who were having more difficulty.

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.
