After years of on and off again failed attempts at knitting since my late teens, I am now an avid knitter and crochet enthusiast as of November 7, 2023. \u00a0One night it just magically took off and I\u2019ve been knitting and crocheting almost daily ever since. \u00a0I hope to gain a lot more knitting skills, complete at least 10 fiber arts projects per year, specialize in granny squares, learn how to spin yarn, become accomplished at tatting and embroidery. \u00a0It pays to be persistent. \u00a0I am descended from a talented self-taught knitter. \u00a0If I had a quarter of my mother\u2019s creative talent, I\u2019d be in good shape.<\/p>\n
Currently my most used size knitting needles are 7 to 15 which is tell-tale of the weights of yarns I prefer but who knows what the future will hold? My first yarn was Manos del Uruguay Rasta (super bulky) in the Party colorway. Coupled with it being a fun and quick knit is why I believe my interest in knitting began to soar.<\/span><\/p>\n I\u2019m also a fan of ChiaoGoo, Clover, LYKKE, Katrinkles<\/p>\n
