About
Hi, I’m Centaine!
A knitter for more than 15 years and a journalist for more than 10, I started After This Row to document my development in the fibre arts during the COVID-19 pandemic, when my mental health demanded a hobby, and a stint of unemployment left me with extra time on my hands to explore the craft further than ever before.
The name of the blog is based on my favourite catchphrase, which I declare every night before bed.
