A designer and seasoned teacher from New Jersey, Pat Olski is equally passionate about knitting, crocheting, and embroidery. Her articles and many patterns reflecting all three have been published in numerous issues of Vogue Knitting, Vogue Knitting Crochet, Knit Simple, Noro, and Piecework magazines, as well as in a large variety of needlecraft and knitting books.

She is the published author of a number of yarn craft books and booklets. Her most recent book is “Yarn Whirled: The Royal Family.” Pat’s newest book, “Creating Dorset Buttons,” will be released in spring 2018.

Pat enjoys nothing more than translating complicated traditions into relevant and approachable designs that are fun to make.
