Introduction: I like to knit. I'm a student at Harrington College of Design.
How long have you been knitting?: 3-4 years
Who taught you to knit?: I taught myself from a $9.99 kit I bought at Walgreens. I was in Dallas for my job and without a car in a suburban hotel and bored stiff. I never finished the scarf because the yarn was so bad it hurts my fingers to think about it.
Why did you first get interested in knitting?: I love to make things. Knitting is about the most useful craft and I love seeing actual fabric being made in front of me by my hand.
