… and in the beginning there was

… just me, a set of knitting needles, and a ball of yarn. Sitting in front of the computer screen, furiously flailing fingers in an attempt to self-educate and learn to create the beautiful things I have seen other fiber queens render.

Now, I know a bit more.. I am no expert by any means. I’m still very much a beginner in many aspects. At this point, I have tryed quite a few knitting techniques (but have hundreds left to conquer) as well as learned to dye and skein my own yarn.

I started out on straight needles with acrylic yarn, knitting flat only. Then I discovered the ease and glory that is circular knitting.. Now, I can’t stand to wrap anything but 100% natural fiber around my fingers and needles, and I’ve graduated from scarves and stuffies to fashionable sweaters, skirts, and other accesories that if I saw them at a store would RUN to buy them… and I can make this little lovelies with my own two hands.. How cool is that?!?

So as I have another blog, which will for now remain nameless, that caters to the other big area of my life.. I thought it was suitable to create one just for my love of knitting, yarn, and fibre arts in general!
