| Introduction | Living in Darien, CT after spending a many years raising a family in San Francisco, then London. I was inspired by the work of Kaffe Fasset, Sasha Kagan and Maggie Jackson. I decided in early 2000 to take lots of lessons, and knit like a crazy woman to learn as much as possible. I'm still fine-tuning skills as I develop my own designs.I'm a big fan of Sally Melville, Nicky Epstein, Norah Gaughan, Debbie Bliss, teachers and creative designers who contribute so much to the world of knitting. ...
