Kate Atherley, a.k.a. Wise Hilda

I'm a teacher, designer and writer, based in Toronto. My book "Beyond Knit and Purl" has been praised for its fresh approach to teaching knitting.

I'm Lead Technical Editor for Knitty & KnittySpin, and the Knitting Editor of A Needle Pulling Thread magazine.

I'm known for my "small start" approach to teaching sock and mitten knitting.

I have opinions, mad math skills and an unfeasibly large stash of sock yarn.
