MALIA MAE JOSEPH
I'm a Samoan-American knitwear designer living in the UK. As the founding partner of Stephen & Penelope in Amsterdam, I've spent over 15 years in the knitting and handcraft world as a purveyor as well as a consumer. I started designing patterns because I'm hard-headed and always want to figure things out myself. Sometimes I think my life would be so much easier if I could just follow directions!
Some of my designs have been published in Pom Pom Quarterly and with Laine Publishing, and I have worked on mini collections with my partner at Stephen & Penelope, Stephen West. To see my complete catalogue of designs, find my Ravelry Store here and my Gumroad store here.
SNUGGLE BUG COWL
My newest pattern, the Snuggle Bug Cowl, is now available on Ravelry. If you're making your own, share your Snuggle Bug with me using the hashtag #snugglebugcowl.
Use any single skein of DK yarn to make this cowl! To buy the exact yarn used in this pattern, find LITLG DK Twist on my website:
