Mari Tobita

Mari Tobita

I live in New York City.
I love designing, knitting and teaching.
I enjoy the process from design to completion.

I like to add small challenges and new techniques to my designs. This makes my patterbs not super easy, but I think it is very satisfying when it is done.

All of my self-published patterns are technically edited.
They can be found at Mari Tobita Designs Store.
