Welcome !

Welcome to my blog!
Ive been a knitter for 30 years, crocheting even longer. I think it was 5th grade!! Ive been working at Green Mountain Spinnery for 16 yrs. Ive done almost every job there except for scouring wool....yuck what a smelly dirty job! I am mostly behind the computer answering emails and sending yarn out the door.
 I get meet so many knitters at the shop and shows that we go to ,That I thought maybe we could share tips and stories from the knitting world that not everyone gets to see. A behind the scenes kind of look.
As most of you know I'm not a writer,so this blog will have lots of photos! I never seem to have the time to read other blogs that are text heavy. I kind of skim through picking out the important stuff and enjoying the photos. So that's what Id like to do here. I can give you a little glimpse into my life at Green Mountain Spinnery ,my work as a knitter and my poodles!!. I hope you enjoy!!
