About Me

Hi! I’m Michelle

I picked up my first project—a simple scarf—over 20 years ago, and it was love at first stitch. Knitting quickly became more than a hobby—it gave me a creative escape and a sense of calm in this sometimes crazy world.

I live in Michigan with my spouse and two very spoiled furbabies. This space is about all things knitting: projects, fibers, books, techniques, and more. I’m glad you’re here!
