About Me:

I’ve been an avid knitter and seamstress for over 32 years. Even as a young girl I had a great appreciation for all types of needlework. I started making knitting bags 25 years ago to sell at the yarn shop where I was working at the time. People loved them, as there we no actual knitting bags to be found(other than the real old timers). Over the next couple of years, I continued to make them here and there for friends and family. Life took over and my husband and I had two sons, and ran a successful restaurant for 14 years... hard to believe it's been almost eight years now since we sold it. I often thought about making the bags again, and did so when eBay came to be, as a wonderful venue was created. Requests for my own web site were constant, so it all evolved to....here. My first two years (almost three now) with the site have exceded all expectations, sending bags all over the United States and beyond. The bags have evolved (and continue to do so) in style from those first bags I made so long ago. Although I’ve had many offers to wholesale, I’ve decided against it, as each bag is made one at a time by me and not mass produced. I’m not looking to take the knitting world by storm (well...maybe just a little) but rather create a way of life that is fulfilling, and allows me to express my love of fabrics and color…while still giving me the time to visit the woods and rivers regularly.

When I was four, my family moved to Vermont. That summer while on vacation in Maine, I vividly remember watching a woman knit. I stood and watched her for a long time, and was in awe at the clicking of the needles and the swiftness of her hands as she fed the yarn through. That moment was life changing, and from then on I could be found with some sort of sewing needle, crochet hook, or knitting needle in my hands. Still today, my hands are rarely still...

Vermont is lovely and my family and I enjoy the changing seasons and all they have to offer... yes, even mud season. There are also many artisans here who dedicate their lives to creating quality goods that are both unique and beautiful. I pinch myself daily...I'm so fortunate to do what I love. I never tire of it...the fabrics, buttons, getting to be as creative as I want...and 'meeting' so many wonderful women all over the world has brought a richness to my life I could only have imagined.

Hats off to the knitters who with their ingenuity, passion and creativity came before us. For what was born of necessity, became style, grace and art. May we continue to pass our own unique skills along to the generations to come.

Please feel free to e-mail me if you’d like help determining which knitting bag is right for you.


It took me a long time to get here…but I’m right on time.
