Today, we are talking with Vancouver, Canada-based knitwear designer, Amanda Kaffka of The Crafty Jackalope.

Amanda Kaffka learned to knit on arbutus twigs when she was six and hasn’t looked up since. She has been caught knitting at traffic lights, cafés and beaches, but her backyard is her favorite place to knit alongside her husband and Kitty.  Always knitting, never waiting, you won't catch Amanda without a project or two in her purse!

With a fashion design degree from Ryerson University she has a passion for knitwear design and teaching. With a no-rules-in-knitting approach but high standards for excellence Amanda’s passion is to guide students to knit freely with solid technique.

Join us as we talk about Amanda's first collection launch, YARN Vol 1.
