Guest speaker: Olgalyn Jolly - Cut 'n Sew Live Archive

I am am Olgalyn Jolly, founder of O! Jolly!

I am a designer of knitwear and knitted textiles with a past in the performing arts.

Attracted to and inspired by luxurious fibers, I love looping yarns and manipulating them into interesting shapes, getting the visual rhythm going, repeating a motif.

I love the fact that a knitted textile can be created with just a single thread. The design is executed, and the yarn end is passed through the final loop. The knit fabric, a physical documentation of a beautiful and complex idea, is complete.
