Kyle Kunnecke has a not-so-secret passion for colorwork. Through his fiber workshops, he provides inspiration to his students, exploring the skills necessary to continue their personal knitting journeys. His patterns are published in books and magazines, by yarn companies, and under his label, Kyle William.
His book, Urban Knit Collection (Revised 2nd Edition)—published by David & Charles—features 18 modern knitting patterns inspired by architecture and city life. This edition includes corrections to errata from the original release and a newly expanded section focused on the locked floats technique, a method for managing floats in stranded colorwork. Inside, you’ll find step-by-step photos showing how to trap floats in both two-handed and Continental styles, on either the knit or purl side of the fabric.
Kyle lives in Tacoma, WA, where he enjoys exploring the Pacific Northwest while pursuing his career in the fiber arts. His studio is home to many treasures, including spinning wheels, knitting machines, and dyeing equipment, and he spends countless hours developing new projects and techniques. When time and schedule permit, he also leads workshops and classes online and at events around the country (and sometimes around the world!).
Kyle believes creativity has the power to heal, and that when we share our stories through craft, the world becomes a better place.
