DarkTwist Fiber Co.

Welcome! I'm a creative type of person living an alternative lifestyle and I suppose it's no shock that I have a hard time following directions. I always seem to end up doing it my own way whether I meant to or not. With knitting, at least, I've learned to write down what I did and share the results. Over the years I've found that my designs may not always fit into the generally accepted groups, but they're almost always interesting. These days I focus primarily on writing up and test knitting my designs, but do have to occassional prototype available as well. All of my offerings will be listed on my Etsy shop but if there is a question or custom request, please do not hesitate to contact me!
Primarily dedicated to fiber and related handcrafts, we also are a veritable grab bag of the grotesque, morbid and sarcastic that has no real category.

In addition to the etsy site, my patterns are now available on Ravelry.

Thank you very much to the kind folks at Vogue Knitting, who mentioned my little top hat in their "Web" section of the Winter 09 issue.

For those of you interested in my dwelling saga, here's the progression of homes thus far... I do hope to be upgrading again soon. This time no engine! Although it does serve well as an anchor during those gale force winds, it's too much work.

And the RV. A 1969 Dodge M300, it has been very interesting to say the least. After 2 years of trying to make it workable though, I'm giving up. Hoping for an Airstream, but would be thrilled with no leaks and climate control of some sort.
