I am a crochet and knit designer. I began designing in 2010, with my first published pattern appearing in Interweave Crochet. I have published with them several times, as well as in Crochet! magazine, I Like Crochet, Love of Crochet, and Crochet Today!. I have worked with Ancient Arts Fibre Crafts, and Coats & Clark to produce patterns for their yarns. I love designing wearables most and I love color!
I am married to a husband that supports and admires my work. I have 4 daughters that I adore, and raising them is my primary occupation. I homeschool all 4 of them, and most days I love doing it. I enjoy spinning, baking, and genealogy as well.
I am a disciple of Jesus Christ and a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (mormon.org).
Happy Stitching!
