I come from a long line of crafty women. My great grandmother knitted, maybe even crocheted (all I remember is her Phentex slippers). The other did needlework I was told. Grandma #1 did cross stitch and sewed stuff. Grandma #2 did all kinds of crafts and crocheted. My mom…well she does everything crafty, but hates sewing and yarn.

And me…well, my addiction for years was crocheting, although I did learn how do to everything under the sun during my 11 years as a 4-H member. The stuff I didn’t learn then…I learn now.

My newest addiction is knitting…. I can’t get enough. There is so many projects and so little time. I crocheted my first afghan when I was 10, and knit my first pair of socks when I was 37.

Oh and in my not so spare time, I put on my graphic designer hat and make some real money. A girl needs to buy more crafting stuff, you know.

Please enjoy my patterns and wear them happily.
