About Us


Cassandra and Alex met at work - where they slaved away together for 13 years (until Alex abandoned Cassandra for a new company). Cassandra likes to say that they were like "an old pair of shoes" - they just fit. As a designer and writer respectively, they have naturally dove-tailing creative abilities and really enjoy the collaborative process. Like Lennon and McCartney before them, their combined efforts are greater than the sum of their parts. (Yeah... they went there.)

Their patterns can be found featured on some wonderful crafting sites, such as All Free Knitting, All Free Sewing, and Craft Gossip. You can download patterns from their Mighty Distractible pages on Craftsy and Ravelry.

And, undoubtedly, their proudest achievement to date is to have been selected for and published in Heather Ordover's amazing collection of knitting patterns, What (else) Would Madame Defarge Knit?. They will also be participating in Heather's next book in the series, What Would Madame Defarge Knit?: Shakespeare Edition.

Mighty Distractible is not just a cute name... Come, enjoy the randomness of our thoughts.
