a journey of courage
I started knitting 10 years ago after a friend invited me to attend one of her knitting classes. She warned me that her knitting teacher was very direct and actually hated teaching, so the sooner I caught on the better. I had an open-handful of confidence - that one time I crocheted a pot holder in 5th grade (it's like riding a bike - right?). She gave me a pair of needles, a ball of yarn and the rest is history. From the first moment I cast on my first stitch, I was hooked (insert crochet pun here). I did catch on fast and Helen agreed to continue sharing her knowledge and love of knitting with me.

Years later, I found myself knitting everyday. There was a moment when knitting wasn’t an option anymore - I weaved this “thing” into my space and it became one of my lifelines. When I wasn’t knitting, I was thinking about what I could be knitting. Once I identified myself as a knitting creative, I knew it was time for me to set up my platform and present my gifts to the world - ready or not it was coming.
