Hi, I'm Lyndsey The Artisan Tech Editor, helping you perfect your knitting & crochet patterns and grow your design business.

I have a Diploma in Crochet from the Centre of Excellence. I have trained with Carol Ibbetson for both knitting and crochet tech editing. I am a geeky data analyst who has a passion for all things crochet and problem solving.

Article featured in Crochet Now magazine about the role of tech editors in the yarn industry.

I am passionate about crochet and have a real eye for detail. My friends call me the 'Crochet Queen'!

My day job is a Data Analyst, so I am used to wrangling large complex healthcare data, so I happily take the complexities of technical editing formulas in my stride. I am a real data geek and love a good spreadsheet! 

I am a prolific crocheter and have been since I was a child, and learned to knit in 2011. I can pretty much knit or crochet anything. I have previously completed an online Centre of Excellence Crochet Diploma with a Distinction and I have almost completed distance learning Part 1 of the International Crochet Diploma with the acclaimed Pauline Turner.

The combination of my analytical brain, MS Excel skills plus my passion for crochet puts me in a perfect position to be a successful Technical Editor especially for Crochet Designers.
