KnitHacker is Danielle Holke’s long-running love letter to knitting and crochet. Since 2008, it’s been a home for indie designers, free patterns, amigurumi, fiber art, and the occasional dose of craftivism. Stay a while.
In addition to five-star patterns, I have a selection of ready-to-ship knits in my shop and I also take commissions from time to time.
