My name is Rachel, and I've been told by my mother that I'm in danger of becoming a cat lady, in spite of the fact that I don't actually own any cats. Also, I'm in my 20s. This is my effort to get out of my house and still do something I enjoy.
My cousin got one of those "knitting" kits with the pegs and hoops and picks, and I had fun doing it, but decided that making tubes was pretty limiting and thought learning how to knit with needles would be more fun. And it is!
I learned from Allyson Dykhuizen, who runs The Sweatshop of Love. She did a great job teaching me - it was very relaxed.
I've been knitting just under a year - I took a class as a birthday present to myself last January.
Knitting and beer drinking, what more can you want?
