Teaching & Speaking

I am available to travel to teach classes and speak. Please contact me for more information if you’re interested in me teaching a class at your shop or would like to commission a design. I live in Chicago and can travel and work internationally.

Trunk Shows

My Traveling Woman shawl sometimes does travel without me. I wish I could come to every store, but I don’t always have the time. If you’re interested in a Traveling Woman Collection trunk show, or other themed trunk show, drop me a line to check availability.

Commissioned Designing

I love doing clubs and custom patterns! My plate is a little full until Spring 2012. If you want a slot for your club filled after Spring 2012, drop me an email! I typically do socks, 1 skein shawls, or other small projects for clubs. If you’re a LYS looking for something special, lets brainstorm and see what we can come up with.

Teaching my patterns at your LYS

Individual instructors or LYS may buy a teaching license. I offer them for each pattern, but I do give discounts after you buy 3 single licenses. Purchasing a Course Instruction License grants you the right to teach an unlimited number of courses from one pattern you’ve selected, and to give each student with a printed copy of the pattern.

I carefully review all instructors and LYS who apply to teach classes. I ask for some information: how many years you’ve taught, a copy of a syllabus, links to any promotional materials, basic biography, etc. Once I have vetted and approved you as an instructor, I add you to my database of contacts, including a publicly accessible list on my website. Don’t worry, it’s not a job application! I just want to know a little about you.

Licenses are available as follows:

  • Single pattern, one course: $25
    • License for one pattern for one class session.
  • Single pattern, unlimited courses for one year: $100
    • License for one pattern, unlimited class sessions for one year from date of agreement.
    • After 3 years of this license, it becomes a lifetime license.
  • Single pattern, unlimited courses, lifetime license: $250
    • License for one pattern, unlimited class sessions for life.
All pattern licenses include:
  • List in private database: contact information given to those who ask.
  • List in public database on feministy.com
  • Right to print 1 copy of each pattern for a student.
  • Access to pattern updates.
  • Right to teach for profit.

Please contact me to apply for a Course Instruction License.
