Learn locked floats
Trap the unused yarn as you go, and the back of your colorwork becomes a tidy, woven fabric with nothing to snag.

About
Hi, I’m Kyle!
I love colorwork. It’s not much of a secret.
I design patterns, write books, and teach. You might know me from locked floats: a simple rhythm of trapping the unused yarn behind every other stitch in stranded knitting. No long floats to snag, and the back of your work turns into a dense, woven-looking fabric of its own.
Home is Tacoma. I’m slowly turning my yard into an English cottage garden, and when I’m not knitting or digging in the dirt, I’m usually on the road to teach. I’ll take any excuse to visit a historic site or an art museum along the way.
At home, my studio assistant is Lily, a tabby I adopted from a rescue in 2017. She supervises from whatever patch of sun she can find.
What people are saying
“Great class. Loved every minute. Great teacher, well worth coming 7,000+ miles to attend.”
