Coaching with Olgalyn Jolly
The private coaching sessions are appropriate for machine knitters with intermediate skills who wish to deepen their understanding of stitch pattern development and design principles. In our one-hour sessions, I will guide you to your next level of machine knitting and answer your tough questions.
All sessions will be conducted via Zoom.
Hello! I'm Olgalyn, your machine knitting coach.
With decades of experience in machine knitting, ranging from design work to sweater production to teaching at the college level, I'm still learning new things! My specialty is taking the complexities of machine knitting and breaking them down into readily understandable, core concepts. A solid and deep understanding of machine knitting principles will allow your creativity to soar!
Formerly a faculty member of the Fashion Institute of Technology and Parsons School of Design in New York City, I've also conducted classes for School of the Art Institute of Chicago, the Textile Arts Center, Vogue Knitting Live, and the Mid Atlantic Fiber Association. I serve as a Kniterate "ambassador" for the US and Canada, providing demos of the machine to prospective purchasers.
