As an indie knit designer, I welcome the opportunity to engage in partnerships and collaborations with other fibre artists, indie dyers and knitting/yarn businesses. To commission a design, purchase patterns at wholesale, or explore other possibilities, please contact me by email at [email protected].

A number of Redtigerdesigns sock patterns were originally introduced as special projects for yarn subscription boxes, sock clubs or indie yarn dyers. It has been a privilege to design for these fibre businesses and groups of avid knitters. It is always fun to create a custom design for an appreciative audience.
