Hi, I'm Kari Capone!

I'm a knitting designer, educator, and lifelong maker who's been knitting for over 25 years. Believe it or not, it took me AGES to figure out the purl stitch! (There was no YouTube back in the day...)

I've frogged countless rows, and learned that sometimes all you need is the right explanation or some friendly advice for everything to click.

That's why I created The Spinning Hand. Every kit combines beautiful materials with thoughtfully designed patterns, step-by-step tutorials, and the encouragement to try something new.

And if you get stuck? Email me! You'll hear directly from the person who designed your kit.

You can knit that. I'll show you how!
