A New Way to Knit
Hey, I’m Jeanette. I believe your knitting should fit you, not the other way around.
I started New Wave Knitting because I was tired of patterns that made knitters feel boxed in. Boxed in by size, by yarn, and by rigid instructions.
I wanted freedom. I wanted to knit with what I already had, make it fit me, and stop worrying about math. So I built something different.
Now, I design flexible patterns that meet you where you are. Whether you have leftover yarn or a brand-new vision, if you can measure it, you can make it.
We turn your yarn and measurements into perfectly fitting knitwear.
Each New Wave Knitting pattern is a customizable template that:
- Adapts to your measurements (no more guessing sizes)
- Works with any yarn and any gauge
- Includes built-in calculators that do the math for you
- Lets you create endlessly with just one design
Whether you are stash-busting or starting fresh, these patterns are made to support your creativity.

Meet the Maker
I taught myself to knit when I was ten years old, and I always had something on my needles. For a long time, I followed the rules. I matched gauge, bought the exact yarn, and spent hours doing math just to make things fit.
In 2021, I started test knitting and designing for others. That’s when I realized I could do things differently.
Now, I build patterns that flex to your yarn, your body, and your ideas. No restrictions. Just possibilities.
