Guest: Kathy talks with Thea from BabyCocktails about her journey from the Advertising business to knitting design. Thea confesses to having trouble sticking to patterns, and that her design process is not as linear as other designers, as well as her yarn choices for patterns and design inspiration.
Thea’s Sambuca sweater was knit with our own Valley Yarns Stockbridge. See more of Thea’s designs on our website.

A great interview! I absolutely love Thea Coleman’s designs and had often wondered about how she got her start. Thanks so much for that!
