At Joeriaknits, we are dedicated to supporting Canadian knitters and knitwear designers in their craft by providing high-quality tools and supplies. One of the most rewarding aspects of knitting and crochet, is discovering a community of like-minded people who generously share their patterns and expertise.
The following Canadian knitwear designers and bloggers create knitting patterns, hand dye custom spun yarns, and teach knitting techniques for the skilled knitter and beginners alike.
I do not have any affiliation with these talented ladies, and I am not compensated for listing their links in my post.
