About the author

Many years ago, a yarn shop opened and I met many knitting friends including Pam, a cancer survivor who had founded an amazing charity, Halos of Hope.   She inspired me to begin knitting hats. Which led me to challenge myself to knit more hats. Which led me to think I could make at least two per month.  Which led me to, "why not blog about it." After all I had just watched Julie and Julia. Was I crazy? Most definitely. Especially since I'm not very consistent with my postings.  But, I do try.

I've recently retired from being a school teacher librarian. A job I loved. Honestly, who doesn't love books? I truly thought I'd have all this extra time to get all this crafting done. Again, call me crazy because it is so not happening. I'm working through my stash, trying to finish WIPs, knitting projects other than hats, and trying new hobbies - wool embroidery.

I love comments, it lets me know someone actually reads the blog, lol. I also have a Facebook page, which is basically just another way of letting people know I've posted here. Although my personal Instagram page is private (do you really want to see the flood in my backyard?), I do post a lot of my WIPs and finishes in my public Instagram account.
