Welcome to my website! I'm Dorothy Siemens, designer of Fiddlesticks Knitting patterns. I love to knit shawls, scarves, sweaters—well, I just love to knit. I also love to design, and always have far more ideas than time.

I'm a graduate of the Ontario College of Art and Design and have worked as a graphic designer and illustrator in the magazine and book publishing industries. Designing knitwear is a great way to combine my graphic design experience with my love of knitting.
