About

I learned to knit in the fall of 1981, my first semester in college. I started with Barbara Walker’s Learn-To-Knit-Afghan Book.I never made the afghan, but I made 16 squares into two pillows and used the patterns for many, many hat designs. From that book I learned almost everything I need to know about knitting. Today there are so many books, designers, yarn sources, etc, that knitting has become confusing! I like things simple and boiled down to the necessities. From there creativity can soar! I hope to provide a website that helps you navigate all the choices and encourages your love for the art of knitting.
