I'm Julie, manic knitter and mum to 2 children. My son is severely autistic and so life is a real rollercoaster ride.

I trained as a graphic designer. Since graduating I've worked as an illustrator, in Sales & Marketing and more recently as full-time mum and part-time knitter.

When I was 9 my Mum and Gangan taught me to knit and I've never really stopped. I knit to stay sane, express my creativity and make a bit of money for shoes (another passion).

Everything that I create is knitted to my own original designs and made to a high standard from all new materials (merino wool, pure cotton, cashmere, silk and alpaca) in the finest branded yarns from Rowan, Jaeger, Debbie Bliss, Ecoknits and Blue Sky.

Knitting for sanity against a background of living with autism. I create unique handknitted items, lovingly crafted from the finest natural materials.
