Introduction
I'm a lefty knitter. I'm a rocket scientist, of sorts. I'm married and I have 4 cats. I have many hobbies, including sewing, spinning, weaving, remodeling the house, photography, dollhouse miniatures, scrapbooking, gardening, traveling...and more!
What kind of objects do you like to knit? Do you keep 'em, sell 'em or give 'em away?

I like knitting sweaters, hats, and scarves, although I haven't finished many sweaters.

How long have you been knitting? New enthusiast or old hand? What are your favorite knitting techniques these days?

Taught myself in college way back when and knitted on and off over the years but never made a lot. I've been knitting more over the last year and found I enjoy doing it while I watch TV.

What is one topic you want to learn more about in knitting or fiber arts, and why?

No answer yet

How did you start knitting? Who taught you and how did you catch the bug?

A great aunt tried to teach me but it didn't stick. I ended up learning it from a book while I was in college as a way to relax my brain from my engineering studies.

  •  I agree with Mary; she knits, she sews, Lori is a fount of knowledge. She is good company too.

  •  Now Lori is a great person to know if you are a lefty knitter. I mean, she's a great person to know for other reasons as well, but this gal is one intelligent analyst of patterns and knit structures. Her approach makes fully left-handed knitting possible. And she's a great meetup member! I say: stick with Lori if you want a good time at knitting meetup.
