Custom handknit keepsakes
Let me knit for you like my grandmother knit for me.
Back in the 1950’s, my grandmother offered to knit me a pink cardigan with an angora kitten on one side and a yarn ball on the other. I preferred the red sweater on the other side of the pattern leaflet, the one with a dog on one side and a doghouse on the other. She knit me what I wanted, and I loved that sweater to shreds!
I would love the chance to work with you to knit something you want, just the way you want it.
“Bespoke” means You Choose!
Yuletide Stockings & Ornaments
My favorite things to knit are holiday stockings and ornaments using stranded colorwork. I would love to work with you to create your own unique design.
Vintage Stockings
Yes, I can copy stockings that are traditional in your family! Commission a matching stocking to welcome a new member to the family or duplicate a beloved heirloom that has degraded over time.
Matching knitwear
Handknits are beautiful and practical gifts! And matching handknits show love and connection.
In addition to matching sibling knits, I also make Mommy & Me knitwear, child-and-doll matching sweaters, and newlywed couple knitwear (which can include a wedding date discretely knitted into an interior band!)

Genevieve Edwards is the grandmama to two grandchildren who are the frequent recipients of beautiful handknits. She learned to knit as a child and picked it up again when her children were grown.
