Instructional knitting classes, knit repair, and unique patterns
As a qualified Knitting Instructor, I’ve been offering my services to people of all ages on the north shore of Boston since 2000, both in group class settings at local yarn shops as well as in private settings. No matter your level or experience, I’m here to give you the professional and artistic attention you deserve.
Hélène Driesen spent her early life growing up in the Netherlands where she learned to knit and sew at a young age, as part of her school curriculum.
Now living in the US, she has expanded her creative expression with spinning and weaving. Her passion is teaching and passing along to others the methods of these crafts
Please reach out with any questions!
Since 2018 Hélène has taught several classes as part of Shetland Wool Week, a week-long international fiber festival renowned in the knitting and creative fiber community. In 2021 the event was run virtual and she was a returning instructor for three sold-out on-line classes. In 2022 and 2023 she returned for the live event with two developmental classes as well as some old favorites and for 2024 she will be teaching 4 classes.
She also test and sample knits for several top designers and is available for pattern translation between English and Dutch as well as custom knits and is also available for guild presentations and workshops.
