I’ve been knitting for about 8 years (unsuccessfully crocheting for about 10 years before that). I’m a stay at home mom of twin toddlers and a red beast (Rhodesian Ridgeback Mix breed). Wife of a mechanic, so yeah nothing white in this household, good thing I like lots of colors then! I’ve just started writing patterns with a thought to making them available to other people. (I’ve done lots of charts for my own private use)
