HI! I’M SHELLEY BRANDER,
FOUNDER OF KNIT STARS.
settings
I know how it can feel to be alone in your creative passion. For my first few
decades as a knitter, I was on my own! When, at age 35, I pivoted from my first
career (in broadcast production) and opened a local yarn store, I saw firsthand
how one great teacher can truly change your knitting life.

I created Knit Stars to bring the best teaching to knitters around the globe. I
used to be afraid to fly (!!!) But now I travel to remote locations around the
world, taking you directly into the homes and studios of the most brilliant
designers, dyers and difference-makers. Now in its 6th year, Knit Stars has
become a learning platform like no other - one that gives us all a place to grow
- in confidence and connection.

WHAT MAKES KNIT STARS DIFFERENT
THAN ANY OTHER EXPERIENCE?
settings
IT’S ALL OF THE A-LIST TEACHERS, FUN AND
COMMUNITY OF AN IN-PERSON FESTIVAL...

without the expense or hassles of airfare, hotels and crowds. And the production
quality is Hollywood feature-film-worthy - crisp, clean and rich in depth and
color. You’ll feel like you’re right there, getting a private lesson from each
Star.

settings
YOU OWN THE ONLINE WORKSHOPS – WATCH ON YOUR SCHEDULE AND AT YOUR OWN PACE.
