Well my name is Claire, I’m twenty-one and I love to knit. I enjoy scouring the internet to find new patterns and making them my own. I made the decision to take up knitting again after nine years because it was freezing cold outside and most of the hats I have bought over the years have just made me look ridiculous and I thought I might be able to do better. I only knit on straight needles and usually with DK yarn.
My boyfriend thinks I’m like a crazy old lady but he is also the one who suggests going into crafts stores all the time so I almost never run out of wool. I find the perfect evening is sitting beside him knitting while he plays CoD on the ps4. That is when we are taking a break from slaying monsters and looting chests on Diablo 3.
