Amy Pickard

I’m a card-carrying scientist who has been knitting since 2002. It’s all my friend’s fault when she took me fabric shopping and she bought some yarn!

I love all kinds of knitting (garments, accessories, socks) and I love the challenge of designing.

I really like using colourwork to paint a picture with my knitting, whether it’s stranded colourwork or intarsia, but I like lace and texture just as much.

If you download one (or more!) of my free patterns please consider supporting me by buying me a coffee via Ko-fi. Thank you.

Note: I’m not affiliated with any business named Dyed in the Wool (it’s just my blog and username!)
