map-pin Cooks Creek, Canada

I am a knitter and crocheter and have been designing and creating things with yarn for as long as I can remember. I have my Gran and Mum to thank for giving me this love of yarn and creating wonderful items with it.
I am also a writer and I recently began creating amigurumi dolls and writing stories to go with them. I love all yarns and usually incorporated several different ones when creating my dolls. I try to give each doll a personality to go along with the story.
I also love to create different wearable items or items for the home.
I have been known to purchase yarns instead of souvenirs when my husband and I travel.
