About

Hiya! I'm Katie,

from Canada and I am the woman behind the scenes here at The Knit Nook. I moved to Napier at the end of 2021 with my kiwi husband of 18 years, and our four kids ages 6-16.

This new season of life is freeing me up for yarn related adventures and I am excited for it. I’ve been knitting for about sixteen years and have a passion for both knitting itself and the community it nurtures. Knitting has been a comfort many times in my life and it brings me so much joy that I will be able to share that with our local knitting community.
