Welcome to Ocean Prairie Designs, where we create innovative solutions that enhance your crafting experience!

Our journey began with Monica tenaciously encouraging Taura to take up knitting for hope, joy, friendship and courage.

One row at a time. Trust the process. Knitting is magic.

Watching Taura navigate common yarn challenges reignited the creative spark in Justin, an award-winning Red Seal Journeyman carpenter navigating life with a progressive spinal injury. Justin's innate love for problem-solving was revitalized as he brainstormed, tested and perfected innovative solutions using new building tools.

Our Team

• Taura: A passionate new knitter determined to build community, uplift, unleash creativity, let sunshine win.
• Justin: Justin is the mastermind behind our innovative designs, combining his award-winning craftsmanship with exceptional problem-solving abilities.
