I learned to knit from my mother-in-law seven years ago. I wanted to learn the craft so that I could make knitted bags for each of my six bridesmaids. It was an ambitious plan that was quickly shelved. The bridesmaids ended up with sewn bags instead. Yet, I was hooked on knitting.
Within the last three years, I started to design my own patterns mostly out of necessity from my bad shopping habits. Like many others, I buy yarn because I am wooed by the pretty colors or the soft texture. Then, I get it home and have no idea what to do with it. Inspired by the stitch dictionary I bought while at Knitters East, my first sweater design was born. This sweater, like so many of my early creations, went to my niece.
Currently, I do design work for a local alpaca farm. Additionally, I am working on a book.
aww thank you very much! But you know, those single crochets are what made my keychains =) yup! All done by single crochets. And my keychains come off for you because I can't knit and would LOVE to learn how but never got the time. If I did, I'd be sure buying that ribbed pattern because they look so comfy! My bf would also love them! Have a great day!!
