1 How did you first get introduced to your craft?

My grandmother first introduced me to knitting when I was a young girl, but I didn’t become passionate about it until the early 1990’s, when I was looking for a fun new hobby while at the same time working in the fast-paced city.

2 What type of patterns do you enjoy designing the most?

I love designing for kids because they are so small. You can really get creative with kids -- they can wear anything!

3 What are you most known for?

Designing for kids is where I’ve found a niche for myself.

4 How do you jump-start your creativity?

Swatching with new and exciting yarns, attending TNNA (The National NeedleArts Association) twice a year, flipping through knitting books, fashion magazines, and also surfing online to see what’s new and exciting in the fashion world.

5 What season inspires you the most?

Fall inspires me the most. I love earthy colors and there are so many more silhoutte ideas to choose from when the weather starts to get chillier. It’s tough to wear a knitted garment in the summer, especially in Florida!

6 On average, how many new patterns do you design each year?

I design around eight new patterns per year.

7 Is there another craft you'd like to try your hand at?

I’m pretty addicted to knitting. I get really excited about incorporating other mediums into my designs -- embroidery, appliqué, beading, and fabric. Embellishing a knitted piece with various other elements really adds richness and dimension.

8 What is your favorite way to spend a Sunday afternoon?

Going for a morning walk with my husband, Jay, and son London, watching Sunday Morning on CBS, then heading out to the gym to have a nice extended workout session, and then topping it off with some yoga and meditation.

9 What three items do you always have in your craft bag?

Tape measure, calculator, and definitely knitting needles (without those I’m out of luck!).
