Introduction...

There's really no way to start this without sounding super cheesy but I do want you to know a little bit about who I am and why I chose to do what I do.

I am a married, mother of two enjoying my last year as a "20 something".  I started knitting back in college when my Anatomy and Physiology class got too stressful for me (I have a teaching degree specializing in PE and Health).  I got hooked and never looked back.

I currently stay hat home with my energetic 2 year old son and my laid back 4 month old daughter, 2 cats and a dog.  Most days my life is crazy but I still find time to sit, relax and knit.

When we found out we were pregnant with a girl, I freaked... just a little.  I always wanted two boys and then a girl.  I already had one boy and just expected this one to be a boy too.  So to combat the nervousness of having a girl, I decided to knit her a hat, with pink (a color which I'm not a fan of) and have it ready for her when she was born.  It turned out much cuter than I expected and I was proud of my first design. 

I started getting comments on her hat and with some gentle pushing and shoving from some friends, decided I would try to sell my hats.  And here I am!!  I love feeling the accomplishment of finishing a hat.  I take a lot of pride in my work.  

So thank you for taking the time to check out my blog.  If you have a hat, I would love to see a picture of it (and you).  I would also love to hear comments and suggestions.


Thank you!!
