Testimonials

“Joanna is a fantastic technical editor. I’ve come to rely on her for my own patterns – and they’re not always simple. She’s detail-oriented and thorough, and her communications are clear.”

— Kate Atherley, Designer and Managing Technical Editor of Knitty.com

“Joanna brings a wealth of knitting knowledge including making or reviewing sizing/grading tables in Excel, creating and editing charts in Stitchmastery, and building schematics. Her rates are more than fair, and she tracks time over the project, meaning that time is only rounded up at the conclusion of a project. She offers advice when asked, and a few times when I’ve elected not to take it, I’ve eventually come to realize that I should have. She’s a trusted and valued resource to me, and I’m grateful to have her help when I’m putting work out in the world.”

— Lynne Sosnowski, Designer

“Joanna has been an invaluable resource to me as a designer. She has helped me catch small problems and solve big ones, and she always pushes me to be more precise and intelligible. Her work is careful and complete, and her explanations and communication are prompt and clear. Having Joanna tech edit my patterns helps me publish them with confidence, and it is difficult to overstate how much that means to a designer.”

— Destiny Itano, Designer and Owner of Seattle Yarn

“Joanna is an experienced knitter and tech editor, and it shows in her work. Her edits are thorough, she is extremely patient in answering questions, and she is willing to elaborate on the reasoning behind her edits. As a relatively new knitter and designer, I couldn't be more thankful for Joanna's help. She is definitely my top choice for a tech editor, and I will most certainly be using her for many patterns in the future. If I ever have a question about a design, I always know that Joanna can help me out!”
