Tanya Singer (at tanyasingerknits) is a NY-based writer and the community-builder behind Beautifully Jewish (at beautifullyjewish) a group inspiring and celebrating Jewish creativity, first founded as a podcast during her tenure at Tablet Magazine.
Craft plays a big role in Tanya’s Jewish identity. Her go-to crafts are knitting and needlepoint. She first learned to knit in college, and her daily knitting habit was formed when her son successfully underwent brain surgery in 2017. She saw the healing power of knitting as she taught children to knit during the pandemic. Her passion for the craft led her to research the ways in which Jewish creatives turn to crafts to cultivate resilience, inspiring her work as a contributor to Tablet Magazine, Vogue Knitting Magazine, Modern Daily Knitting, Kveller, The Jewish Telegraphic Agency and The New York Post.
