Mark your calendars!
Artisan Knitworks is thrilled to announce a series of workshops — to be held September 12-14, 2025 at Artisan Knitworks — featuring a national treasure, RICK MONDRAGON.
Who is Rick Mondragon?
Rick Mondragon, editor of Knitters Magazine from 2000 to 2017, is a fiber-arts, floral, and home-décor designer and teacher. He has been working in the fiber arts for over 40 years.
Rick knits, crochets, spins, weaves, and sews, sometimes using multiple techniques within the same project.
Until very recently, he was a teacher and principal content organizer for all of the Stitches Expos, held for decades across the United States. Rick is known throughout
the industry for producing the Stitches Fashion Shows.
To say the least, he is an accomplished craftsman and instructor.
There are different ways to achieve your goals. Rick looks for the best, most efficient and sound approaches. He will expertly coach you through the numbers and nuances of a design – with humor and wit.
His designs emphasize color and technique along with style, fit, and fashion.
Rick is a lefty who knits both directions with either hand, so he’s well suited to teach anyone. If you ask him more than once, he might even show you how to knit backwards. From yarn creation to finished garment, he has you covered!
Look for a list of Rick’s wonderful workshops soon! You’ll be able to register on line.
