Instructor Bio:
"StevenBe hasn?t done anything quietly in his entire life (his love for disco style, his Flock of Seagulls inspired hair in the ?80s, his recurring mania for neon). Really, isn?t there a little bit of Steven in all of us?
After an eventful career in the fashion industry, his creative work brought him back to his favorite medium, the one that always inspired him the most: the imaginative world of fiber arts. His knitwear designs, chunky creations, and signature multi-stranded knitting style have caught the attention of Hollywood celebrities and stylists and have been featured in national publications.
This need to be remembered, to make a mark, in some way exists in everyone. And Steven?s legacy will live on in every knitter he inspires to create something new and try something different. Every time you take a chance on the unexpected, there?s a little bit of StevenBe in that decision." from his website
