Designer, author and teacher Ann McCauley brings a lifetime of
artistic influences to her knitwear designs.  Ann learned to knit from
her mother as a child. Her interest in knitting escalated when
she toured Europe as a professional dancer and observed
people knitting everywhere she went.  Ann began designing
her own sweaters in 1980, focusing on solid colors, smooth fibers,
and heavy textures that combine classic and contemporary elements.
