I've been knitting since childhood and always enjoyed the process of creating something for myself or for those I love - would consider myself an intermediate knitter, but always trying to learn new techniques and improve my skills. I also love crochet, but my skills are very basic and I'm unable to read a pattern, so at this stage limited to 'Granny Squares' and crochet roses, but aim to rectify this as I love crocheted articles. Pretty much addicted to wool/yarn and consider myself a 'collector' (others would say hoarder), but no plans to reform any time soon!
