About Me


Sharlene Young-Bolen has a focus on historic knitting pattern research and reproductions. She is a knitting hobbyist with an interest in needlework history & a love of natural fibres  and just completed the production of her second knitting kit, the Wheeler Mitts Knitting Kit. The kit is inspired by a pair of knitted gloves from 1870 held in the textile collection of the Huron County Museum & Historic Gaol. Sharlene enjoys working with natural fibres and using vintage textiles and patterns as sources of inspiration.
