About Laura:
"One day I saw a picture of an amazing cardigan on the cover of a knitting magazine. Overflowing with equal parts confidence and ignorance I bought the magazine and the yarn at the local yarn shop and jumped down the rabbit hole. I’ve been knitting continuously for 17 years and love the fibers, the colors, the shapes and projects (washcloths, hats, mittens, socks, cardigans, and more), community, and all the individuals who have helped me along the way. Come join the fun!"
