About the instructors

Lindsey Ross

Lindsey has been knitting voraciously for seven years and is rarely seen without a pair of needles in tow. As the former President of the Urban Craft Uprising, her crafty background expands beyond the realm of fiber arts. An "experimental knitter," she never even gave a nod towards a pattern until three years in. While still preferring to go her own direction on most projects, has quite an expansive realm of technical knowledge on the subject, as she spends much of her free time at Yarnia plowing (and knitting) through the library of knitting books that have accumulated.


Jamaica Robinson

Jamaica Robinson learned how to knit almost 14 years ago, but admits that she found it incredibly boring for the first half of that time period. The second half has been filled with an almost obsessive exploration of fiber, color, and techniques while pursuing a more "serious" bachelor's degree (she often knits during lectures). One facet of this expression, she found to her quiet personality's surprise, is the incredible enjoyment of sharing it with others, and so Jamaica has been instructing different kinds of knitting classes (in local yarn shops or schools) for almost 7 years. Never an incredibly diligent pattern reader, Jamaica has enjoyed being inspired by other people's ideas, and, in turn, helping to inspire others with her knitting knowledge base and skill-sets. At present, Jamaica is enthusiastic about teaching classes at Yarnia and hopes/knows that she can, and will, be a good resource for knitting in SE PDX.
