Juli Gittinger

My name is Juli Gittinger and I am a full time college professor who crochets in her spare time. My dog’s name is Maizee, and is the inspiration for my online store name…she gets to use all my test swatches as blankets!

My TikTok is @geekgirlgitt and I have a YT channel as well with a few instructional videos. Check out the free patterns if you are just learning!
