1) Tell us a little about yourself. I am married. I have one Chihuahua, two daughters, and three grandkids. I knit scarves; it is relaxing and therapeutic.

2) How did you become interested in creating? As a child, I remember watching a knitter in the waiting room of a doctor’s office. I was amazed at how she was turning yarn into a piece of fabric. So, I taught myself to knit with the help of a book.

3) What is your inspiration? I use scraps of yarn to try out stitches from a stitch dictionary. Then, when I get a new color of yarn it tells me which stitch to use to make a scarf.


4) What is your favorite piece you've made and why?
I like my Avocado Maze Scarf because it is young, fun, and makes an impression.

1) How did you become interested in creating? I have always had some sort of creative pursuit happening...for as long as I can remember. I was surrounded by a very creative family with all sorts of art and craft passions. I studied art for six years and continued for a while with art and life drawing at night school and also studied textiles and design for 2 years.

2) What is your inspiration?These days I am totally inspired by colour and all manner of things to do with colour. I have been particularly interested in the way colour can be used for personal growth and the way we express ourselves through our choices in colour.I am currently having a lot of fun working with some fabrics such as bamboo, hemp and silk. My colours turn out differently on each different fabric I use and this presents inspiration in itself.

3) What is your favorite piece you've made and why? I can't say that any one piece I have made is my favourite. Each item I create holds within it a part of my fascination for and love of colour.
