About Me

lipizzanknitter
I have been knitting since I can remember. I love the rhythm that is created by the needles. I became a Certified Master Hand Knitter in 2009 and was invited to join the Review Committee. I served as a Co Chair to this committee from 2010-2017. I am now the Committee Advisor. I am also the VP of Certification for The Knitting Guild Association (TKGA) where I oversee all of the Certification Programs. I authored and now instruct the TKGA Certification for Knitting Instructors for TKGA. I oversee the TKGA Annual Design Contest as well. TKGA is a national not-for-profit guild that emphasizes knitting education. I am an avid lover of Lipizzan horses and all types of cats.
