Hello all I thought I would give you a little insight as to who I am. I am born and raised ranch lady who was raised back in the boonies of the beautiful British Columbia, Canada. I am now a mom of 2 wonderful (handful) children who light up my world and woman to a man who loves me.
I started out trying to learn how to knit as a wee little one but there was just no way. I always figured it was impossible to make anything with yarn and needles. BOY was I wrong. Back in the fall of 2010 when my son was just a little. I decided to give it another try and started out crocheting by watching different videos on YouTube. I was able to learn different stitches and started out making scarves and tuques. Then when he was about 2 so in 2012 I decided I wanted to learn how to knit so I found the website Craftsy and bought a couple of the classes still very skeptic but low and behold I figured how to knit. Now I'm not saying that I know a lot but the little that I do know managed to get me started. Then I tried following a pattern and oh boy I was excited I got a start but then I got bored and well my project changed as I started doing different things. Found out then that no matter how I tried following a pattern just wasn't for me as would get bored with the same stitch and start changing things. So from there I just started wining it. Loved how things were turning out. Then I shared a picture of a project I had done with a group on Face book and was asked where they could find the pattern. UMMM well there was no pattern and I let them know but that got me thinking. If I couldn't follow a pattern but did my own thing maybe just maybe I could try and write a pattern. I know that even sounded crazy to me.
Well even sounding crazy I decided to try it. So there started my journey in early 2017. Then a friend got a hold of me asking if I could build something for her. So I did and wrote the pattern for it in knit. But what about it crochet. Yup managed that as well and now I have patterns for both knit and crocheted Egg Aprons. Best part I did it where a person didn't have to sew the pockets on. I hate seaming and try to avoid doing it.
Well now that I have some pattern made its been bugging me that I couldn't figure out how to get them tested. Then found a wonderful group on Ravelry of people that are willing to test patterns for free. So I have 1 that has completed testing and 2 more currently in testing. I am planning on getting all patterns tested.
I find relaxation in both Knit and Crochet. So I shall continue on this wonderful journey and hope I can come up with items that people love.
Thank you everyone for all your interest in my designs and any questions about my patterns feel free to ask away.
