  • Size-inclusive from the start

    Every wearable pattern is graded across a wide size range with fit modification guidance built in—not retrofitted, not an afterthought.

  • Technical without being intimidating

    Interesting construction, unexpected color, stitch detail that rewards the work—written so you can actually follow it.

Hi, I'm Kathy.

I'm a designer and maker based in Des Moines, Iowa. I've spent 20 years designing digital products for companies like Gap Inc. and Shopify — and I've been designing crochet patterns since 2022, with work published by WeCrochet and Crochet Foundry Magazine. Kathy made is the creative practice I've been building toward. My design background shapes how I work: every pattern is as carefully considered in its presentation as it is in its contstruction.
