Anne Kuo Lukito
Anne fell into designing soon after she taught herself to knit a few years ago. Since then, Anne has been prolific in her designs. Her work has appeared in several books and magazines, such as Interweave Knits, Knitty, Twist Collective, and Knitscene. Anne also designs under her own label, Crafty Diversions and is currently writing her first book.
If it weren’t for bouts of insomnia, Anne would never find time to knit or use up her abundance of creative energy. Or was it the other way around? Anne’s patterns, tutorials, and blog can be found on her website, www.craftydiversions.com.
