About The_Yarn_Whisperer
Kitey (Andrew) is the Indie Dyer behind Yarn Whisperer, which he started during the pandemic, and has been crocheting for 10 years.
He was a Primary Teacher for 30yrs, in Australia, the UK & the Middle East, which explains his passion for sharing new skills with others & helping them to master new techniques.
He has twice been a guest designer at WoollyAway, Hertfordshire, a crochet and knitting retreat where he has taught crochet workshops using his own original designs & his hand-dyed yarns and has also designed and taught for The Crochet Sanctuary in Cranage, Cheshire. He has also taught at The Knitting and Stitching Show at Ally Pally and at The Stitch Festival at the Business Design Centre in London.
