Seismic Sample Makers

Hello Seismic Sample Makers!

This page is dedicated to sharing information about upcoming sample knits and gathering sample knit calls.

For now, I will have a template that I'll ask you to copy and paste into an email when you are interested in applying for a specific sample knit.  I'm hoping to make things easier and simpler in the future!

• Are you comfortable with any special techniques/skills required?
