About

In 2001, we launched the first version of Domiknitrix.com to evangelize knitting and to boot-strap knitters with beginner and intermediate skills to the next level. That was back in the before-times, when we were blogging on our custom domains before the introduction of the world-eating social media sites. Now, in 2025, we have simplified the knitting content that is available and are adding more tabs for Sewing, Baking and Growing!

Jen strives to design unique and wearable knitwear for the chic and the freak.  Jen’s first book, titled: Domiknitrix Whip Your Knitting into Shape, was released by North Light Books in December of 2006. It contains 20 original patterns, including some you know and love from this site. Several original patterns are available for sale online directly to knitters like you.
