| Description | Next year (2026) marks my tenth anniversary as proud owner of Knitting Knicely. If anyone had told me over 30 years ago when I found my love for fiber arts as a young girl, that I would be designing my own knit and crochet patterns, I would have laughed in disbelief. But here I am blessed beyond measure to be able to do what I love and support my family while doing it! |
