Size - and shape - inclusive knitting patterns, workshops, and online courses

I’m Jacki, a knitwear designer and knitting teacher based in Bristol, UK.

I design size and shape inclusive knitting patterns with heaps of options to help you get your perfect fit.

From full bust adjustments for knitters with curves, to a standard size range that goes from a 28in to at least a 62in full chest, I’ve got patterns for all knitters.

I’ve been teaching knitting here in Bristol for over 3yrs, and use all that experience from helping new knitters to write patterns that are super clear and easy to follow.
