Kathleen DamesKathleen Dames focuses on flattering designs and knitterly details for the garments and accessories she creates for her own pattern line, as well as publications such as Knitty, Jane Austen Knits, and Interweave Knits. From her first large-scale knitting project (a poncho from Melanie Falick's Weekend Knitting), she has been making patterns her own, thanks to her personal style and the wisdom of Elizabeth Zimmermann. Kathleen is cocreator of Filament, a quarterly knitting pattern collection filled of modern classics and a vintage sensibility, with Anne Podlesak of Wooly Wonka Fibers. She hosts the podcast The Sweater with Kathleen Dames on YouTube, where you will learn to knit a sweater in twelve weeks. Kathleen worked as an art director in book publishing for many years prior to embarking on a career in knitwear design. Having celebrated #tenyearsanewyorker in late 2017, she has lived there long enough to be a New Yorker but is still excited by all the wonders the city holds.
