"An essential aspect of creativity is not being afraid to fail."

I currently live in Kelowna, BC. I'm a nursing student and a mother of two energetic toddlers. I love fantasy designs and novels. I enjoy D&D when I get the chance to play. I love gardening, canoeing, camping, traveling and swimming.
Getting into the Fiber Arts
Knitting * Crochet * Tatting * Spinning * Sewing
My grandmother taught me how to knit a scarf for a doll when I was little. It wasn't until I started college that I decided to pick up the needles again. It started with a green chenille scarf then others wanted one as well. I attempted crochet a couple years later and failed miserably but it wasn't until I got a crochet kit and tried to crochet a baby kimono while I was pregnant with my first that it clicked and I grew to love it. The past few months I've also picked up tatting. I'm a work in progress.
