If it involves lace, cables, or seamless construction, it’s sure to catch her eye. She shares her enthusiasm by teaching at shops and fiber festivals, and through her book Charts Made Simple. Her latest venture is Stitch-Maps.com, a website for viewing and creating grid-free charts of unparalleled fluidity, authenticity, and beauty. JC will introduce us to stitch maps: the what, where, why, and how. What is a stitch map, and why are more and more knitters choosing to follow them?
