Ep. 97 Embracing Change in Fashion and Design with Julie Robinson

February 04, 2022 Making Conversation

Today I’m talking with Julie Robinson whose journey as a maker crosses traditional routes with unconventional destinations. Throughout our conversation, we return to Julie’s bravery and risk-taking along her path. With an education and profession in the world of fashion design, her creations have shifted from creating for the masses to making for the individual. As a designer, Julie shares her expertise through patterns and masterclasses that inspire and clothe diverse bodies with care. 

Julie’s exquisite knitwear designs and accessories are available on her website julieatwork.com and are featured in Making Magazine’s No. 12 / DUSK and No. 10 / Intricate, both available at makingzine.com. You can follow Julie’s journey on Instagram at @julieatwork and find her masterclasses at thetecheditorhub.com.

This week we’re giving away a knit kit for the Rivi Hat designed by Camille Romano for Making Magazine. Each kit includes 2 skeins of Biches et Bûches Le Gros Silk and Mohair yarn to create your very own Rivi Hat as seen in our latest issue No. 12 / DUSK.
