Currently, I am Executive Editor of Vogue Knitting International as well as Editor in Chief of Knit Simple, both published by Soho Publishing Co. I have been working with Vogue Knitting magazine since 1982. I have been in the hand-knitting industry for over 30 years, working for various yarn companies and knitting magazine and book publishers in New York City. 

I also regularly give knitting presentations to Knitting Guilds. I teach several knitting classes around the country, including at all the Vogue Knitting LIVE events, as well as on knitting cruises, yarn shops and knitting guilds. I also work with the Craft Yarn Council in organizing their various consumer events such as “Stitch 'N Pitch” and teaching groups to knit (my favorite one being the Rockettes at Rockefeller Center in New York City). I was involved at the CYCA inception, and headed the Yarn Standards Committee. 

I have been knitting since I was 7 years old. I learned to knit from my grandmother, as well as my sister and knitwear designer, Mari Lynn Patrick.
