When did you first start knitting / crocheting and where did you learn?

I started knitting in 2007. At that time, I was living in Vancouver BC, and a lovely lady taught me the first stitches.
After that I had the good fortune of having amazing knitwear designers as teachers.

Can you remember the first thing you made?

Yes! A scarf for my daughter, of course!

Who are your favourite pattern designers and celebrity knitters & crocheters?

Wow...it's a long list! On the top of my mind, EZ, Sivia Harding, Jared Flood, Ysolda, Pam Powers, Kate Davies, Mari Lynn Patrick, Tiny Owl Knits, Stephen West, Shiri Mor, Hanna Fettig, Pam Allen, Veronik Avery, Gudrun Johnston, Stefanie Japel, Vickie Howell, Carrie Bostick Hoge, Rosemary Hill…and the list goes on and on...

What are your favourite things to stitch and do you have a favorite item you've made?

I absolutely love everything about garments, specially sueters and cardigans.
My other crush are shawls and acessories.

What music/podcasts/TV shows do you love to stitch along to?

I have an ecletic music taste and I choose playlists accordingly with my mood!

Do you do any other crafts and what are your hobbies?

I knit every time! I can say that my hobbie is researching about trends, colors, materials and such.

Is there anything else you'd like to add?

Thank you for inviting me to be part of Cut Out + Keep Knit Superstar! <3
