My grandmother taught me to knit when I was 6. I loved knitting long before it became the popular craft it now is.

I taught myself crochet from a book when I was 8. I couldn't figure out how to make something flat for a long time, so I made lots of nose warmers. I have since remedied that problem!

I hope to elevate both these crafts to art.

I suffer from a yarn addiction that threatens to take over my home. I love the colors and smells and textures and fluffy softness. I prefer natural fibres to synthetic, and my work always reflects that. I abhor cheap acrylic. You will not find it in my work! If you plan on using red heart for one of my patterns, please don't tell me as it will give me nightmares!

I have an old-fashioned aesthetic. I love antiques and vintage and lace and subdued tones. You will notice that in my designs.
