Chrissy GardinerAKD certified category of hand knitter expertise:
AKD Board of Directors, Director-at-Large

Knitwear design is the creative outlet for otherwise full-time mommy Chrissy Gardiner. After learning to knit from her grandmother at age 10, Chrissy dabbled in the fiber arts (including knitting, crocheting, cross-stitch and needlepoint) for the past two decades before discovering her local yarn shop and the lovely luxury yarns therein. Knitting became her new obsession after discovering that wool is not always scratchy. Chrissy's designs have been published in Cast-On, Knitter's and Knitscene magazines as well as the on-line magazines Mag Knits and Spun. She is a member of The Knitting Guild Association, The Association of Knitwear Designers and The National Needlearts Association. You can also find her busily designing for Classic Elite, Blue Moon Fiber Arts, The Sweet Sheep, Hip Knits UK and Y2Knit when she's not working on new patterns for her Gardiner Yarn Works line or fetching a sippy cup of milk for an impatient child.
