About Kim
Design for Every Body
Curiosity, exploration and an ever expanding plan for world domination are central to the work of knitwear designer and indie hand dyer, Kim McBrien Evans. Known for designs that turn abstract ideas into colour-filled hand knit reality while simultaneously fitting and honouring every body, Kim aims to revolutionize sweater fit, sizing, and how diverse bodies are represented in the yarn world.
Kim believes all bodies are good bodies and deserve clothing that fits. She also believes that clothing should be dynamic and exciting to make and to wear. Kim is the author of The Knitter’s Sweater Fitting Bible (David & Charles) and co-author of Custom Shawls for Curious and Creative Knitters (Abrams).
