Nazanin S. Fard is a knitting/crochet designer with more than 700 published designs, dating all the way back to 1992. She started self-publishing some designs in 2007 in an electronic format offered on her website. Her designs are regularly published in magazines and on yarn company websites. Nazanin became interested in knitting at around age four, when her mom started knitting for her unborn sister. She learned then and hardly ever put down her knitting needles.
Nazanin learned to crochet from her craft teacher in middle school since using a hook instead of two needles always intrigued her.
