Anna
Real passionate about crafts in general since I was a child, I became an independent knitwear designer for Along avec Anna in 2017 and I am now also a book author for Eyrolles (“Tricoter le jacquard en rond”, released in September 2019).
Knitting quickly became for me, in addition to a passion, a way of life. Always a project on my needles, I spend my days brainstorming new pattern ideas and creating them using beautiful yarns that inspire me. I choose yarns that respect the environment and animals.
I create patterns mainly for women but also for children. I regularly try to create adult-child matching outfit!
The patterns are designed to be, above all, a relaxation for you. They are written in a clear manner, therefore accessible to beginners, with links to videos. The patterns are size inclusive, with a bust circumference ranging from approximately 80cm to 160cm for the most recent patterns.
My work is often described as delicate and feminine. My goal is to share my knowledge and skills with the knitting community in an ethical, respectful and friendly way.

Tech-éditrice
Knitter since 2015, I met Anna through social media when I was living in England. We got along straight away and we became friends quickly.
When I started my tech-editor activity, I offered my services to Anna who was immediately interested.
My job consists of grading the patterns imagined by Anna in different sizes, as well as proofreading and correcting the patterns in French and English. I also create the charts if needed.
At Along avec Anna, we want to offer you patterns with clear and accessible instructions, and I take great care to verify that this is the case for each pattern.
Outside of knitting, I love spending time with my partner, family and friend (s) and taking care of my bunny Padmé.
Sarah
Virtual Assistant
Knitting has been such an important part of my life for the last seven years and has seen me through my French literature studies, my many exams and the lockdowns.
For me, knitting is both a creative outlet and a meditative practice that helps me slow down, be patient and create something I can be proud of.
I met Anna on Instagram and was instantly taken with the both the beauty and accessibility of her patterns, so I jumped at the chance to work for Along Avec Anna as a bilingual virtual assistant. I’m thrilled to be able to integrate my passion for knitting and my French skills into my professional life by providing customer support.
Outside of knitting, I love taking walks in nature, yoga and cooking.

Web writer / content creator
An everyday crafty girl and a lover of good words, I learned to knit when I was 17!
I made a mistake and without knowing, I was knitting continental without having looked for it (or even knowing how to do otherwise).
My rainy day hobby has become a vital resource by -30 degrees, which I have dragged for over 10 years in Montreal, Quebec, from movie sets to radio studios.
With Along avec Anna, I am here to put into words the world of knitting to always bring more inspiration and pedagogy.
Charline
Illustrator & graphic designer
Passionate about drawing since childhood, I never thought I would make it my job one day. Then, when I became a mother, it seemed important to me to find an activity that could allow me to work from home. I picked up my pencils again and decided to offer my services.
Passionate about creative hobbies and particularly knitting, I work on the brand identity of Along avec Anna.
Creation of the pattern layout, illustrations, schematics, but also the various products we offered in the shop, I am here to draw all the ideas of Anna and the team!
