About Me:

I'm the vice president of marketing for Knit Picks. We have an amazing and talented team of artists and knitters who handle the marketing, I just try to help them work their magic.

People here often call me a "fearless" knitter because I jumped right in to lace, garments, and more intermediate projects. But I say that's because I have an entire tribe of knitting experts here who can help me get out of any knitting jam.

The designers at Knit Picks have saved the day.

Winner of the "Wackiest Re-Use" contest is...

AmongTheRoses for her idea to make paper out of dryer lint!

AmongTheRoses had several really great entries for this contest, including:

Her son using bottle caps as "army guys," and he stores them all in an old coffee can when not in use
She uses old pantyhose as shoe shiners
Her and her children saved cellophane candy wrappers to complete a "stained glass" project
And she uses any possible scrap paper, from holiday wrapping paper to shredded junk mail to pack up her moving boxes.

Even though… Continue
