Mari is an eager newcomer to designing knit items.

From the first time she picked up the sticks she has been forging her own path and just recently learned to take notes for later pattern writing.
She has a particularly soft spot in her heart for non-clothing items made with yarn.

Mari also writes, draws and works a full time job. She shares her space with two cats, one of which thinks wool is the new cat food and sock yarn was made for chewing to pieces.
