Catherine HirstMy grandmother taught me to crochet when I was a little girl...

I quickly learned to knit and to embroider, and I have been hand-making clothing, accessories and gifts ever since.

My education in art at the University of Pennsylvania informs my original designs. I started teaching crafts professionally in the US over a decade ago, and now in London, the UK, and Europe I continue my teaching journey.

It gives me great pleasure to share these skills and learn new ones. My students challenge and delight me.

I look forward to working with you.

"My friends and I so enjoyed our morning with you! You are an excellent communicator and I love your "knitting-shouldn't-be-scary" attitude. Everyone is jazzed to start/continue on their projects with new confidence! Your double-pointed needle tutorial makes it look less complicated than I thought (as did your cabling explanation!)."
