Jackie Young
Jackie Young, teacher and designer, currently manages a
retail yarn shop in Fort Wayne, Indiana. She learned to knit
from a neighbor at the age of eight. In her high school years
she would often make up her own designs, since she did not
know knitting patterns even existed! On a family vacation to
Maine, Jackie discovered some old copies of Elizabeth
Zimmermann’s newsletters and immediately wrote to her to learn
more about her Knitting Camps. Jackie credits her strong sense
of design with the lessons she learned from these early
experiences.
