Sweet Tomato Heel instruction and KAL Guidance by Cat's dear friend, Sivia Harding
Sivia Harding has worked with fiber and art since she can remember.
Obsessed since youth, by adulthood she had dabbled in weaving, spinning,
and dyeing among other activities, and came to knitting in the year 2000.
Almost immediately, she began to design. She is known for exceptional
designs including lace, garments, accessories, and imaginative Moebius
creations. She has been widely published in books, collections, and
magazines, including Jared Flood’s Wool People series, Spin Off, and on
Ravelry as Sivia Harding Knit Design.
Co-hosted by Val Curtis
Val Curtis, the Curator of Cat’s Creations, is a long-time friend of Cat’s who was entrusted with continuing the community. She embraces the journey, especially when it involves Silent Knitting. Val takes charge of Cat’s patterns, website, online presence, and exciting upcoming ventures!
Although relatively new to knitting, Val is eager to embark on her first moebius project. So, if this technique is unfamiliar to you, don’t worry, you’re not alone. She is learning alongside everyone else.
Constantly seeking innovative ways to bring the community together, Val strives to share Cat’s knitting magic with knitters worldwide.
