Welcome Knitting Friends,

Knitting and designing are my passion. My design philosophy is to create interesting, simple, and yet elegant designs that would be a pleasure to knit as well as wear. I enjoy various fibers and textures and this is reflected my designs.

My design inspirations are many. I draw inspiration from patterns in nature, yarns, and most of all from the people around me and what would look great on them.

In addition to my own patterns my work has been have been published several times by Classic Elite Yarns, most recently in their Essentials book (Wide Yoke Turtleneck– also feature in the back cover of Vogue Knitting Fall’06) and in City Park (Keyhole Pullover and Eyelet Cardigan) (Spring’07).

My patterns are currently available at the terrific website for The Yarn and Fiber Co (www.yarnandfiber.com) and if you are local, Cyndi, has graciously allowed me to have a trunk show at her shop in beautiful Windham, NH.

Happy Knitting,

             Tonia Barry
