Emily is a third generation knitter, who became obsessed with it after discovering lace knitting in 2007. Always one to tinker with a pattern, she finally decided to just make her own. She enjoys creating patterns that are complex enough to never be boring, but intuitive enough to quickly memorize.

Brian brings a diverse and ever widening skill set to team knitterain. An audio engineer by trade, he does virtually everything that isn’t directly yarn related. This includes photography, graphic design, web design, web development, and pattern layout, among many other skills.
