Cristina is an east coast native who now happily calls St. Louis home. She has degrees in musical theater and social work, and works as a psychotherapist in private practice. She has been knitting and crocheting, and sharing her love of these crafts through teaching, for over 20 years. Cristina’s home is adorned with hand-made goodies made at Perennial over the years, including a tufted ottoman, a bulletin board full of beloved family photos, and a sewing thread wall organizer made out of a desk drawer she found in the alley behind her house. Cristina lives in Benton Park with her husband, son, and two yarn-chasing cats.

This class was great! Cristina was patient, kind, and thoughtful, and her enthusiasm for all things knitting was contagious. It was clear that she deliberately structures her lessons to enable her students to learn a lot in one session but also to repeat the techniques enough to solidify them and be motivated to continue. It was fun to learn this new skill and empowering to have the confidence to keep at it!

This was a great intro to knitting! Cristina was a great teacher - very patient and explained everything with ease. I'm well on my way to my first potholder...or scarf! :)

This class was awesome!! I signed up with no knowledge of how to knit and left the class with an eagerness to keep knitting! Within 2 days I had finished my first cowl, and started a new pattern for a baby blanket. Cristina has a true passion for knitting and is an amazing teacher. I can't wait to take another class with her!

This class was really such a blast. Cristina is a fantastic teacher! She is both extremely patient and enthusiastically encouraging, filled with helpful tips and insider tricks of the knitting trade. I think everyone walked in knowing absolutely nothing, and before the two hours were up, we were all knitting away like pros. She also equipped us with great handouts and online resources for our continued knitting pursuits. I can’t wait until she has another class because I am SO taking it! Recommend 100%!!!

Cristina has a passion for knitting that is contagious. She empowers all of her students with confidence and hope that they can become master knitters just like her. The class was well planned and she gave each of her students plenty of one-on-one time. Wonderful class with wonderful people!
