Julie Armstrong Holetz is a craft writer, editor, and pattern designer. Julie's most recent book, Uncommon Crochet (Ten Speed Press, 2008) encouraged stitchers of all experience levels to explore natural fibers and alternative techniques in order to create, design, and experiment with crochet. With Crochet Away! (Price Stern Sloan, 2006), Julie shared her passion for crochet with younger readers. Most recently, Julie was proud to commission patterns and articles for the Britain's only premier crochet publication Inside Crochet Magazine.

Julie has designed patterns for several popular books and magazines. Her crochet designs have been published in Stitch N Bitch Crochet: The Happy Hooker, Alt Fiber, Crochet Me, and Get Hooked as well as Inside Crochet and Crochet Me Magazine.
