About The Wrinkled Thistle
Hi! I'm Audrey and welcome to the The Wrinkled Thistle.
I've been knitting since I was a child, taught by my mum and gran. Following a detour to University, medical research and then scholarly publishing, I've come back to what I love most, knitting!
I live in the North York Moors, a wonderful place to roam and experience all the climate has to offer. I'm also not far from the coast, which is glorious in the height of summer or on a wild, moody winters day.
Technical Editing
I am a Technical Editor for knitting, certified by Cool Wool School. My expertise lies in jumpers, cardigans, including ganseys, arans, and colourwork, bottom up or top down. I also work on small accessories, such as socks, gloves, hats, cowls, scarves (not shawls) and homeware accessories.
Pattern grading
I also learned the art of pattern grading from Cool Wool School, sizing up, down and all around!
