About Me
About Me: I’m just another twenty-something knitter, holding onto sanity by knitting the threads instead of dangling from them. I’ve been knitting for about four years, I don’t have a rich and blurb-worthy knitting story. My grandmother didn’t knit, I didn’t spend cold winter nights knitting with my mother by a fireplace, nope…I’m pretty sure I read about someone knitting in a BUST magazine and thought “I’d like to know how to knit”. When I found out my mother in law could do it sometime later, I asked her to show me. And here I am. Glamourous? No. True? Absolutely.
I’d say I’m an advanced intermediate knitter by now. I haven’t met something I couldn’t do yet, just a few things I have no desire to do. 20 color fair isle? No thank you. I love to knit, and after all…it keeps me from killing people. That and beer. Beer is awesome.
Outside of knitting the three things I enjoy doing the most are net surfing, reading, and taking pictures. I’m a sucker for a few hours on Ravelry or Craftster, a new book, and a good day spent behind my camera. I also paint, sew, and do other oddball crafts. I’m in school, and I love it…I just graduated community college and am now working on a Bachelor of Arts, majoring in photography. I’m a left-winged, live and let live, atheist, heathen-sinner smartass, and I’m happy.
I live in a dying city on the South Coast of Massachusetts with my husband, daughter, son, chihuahua and 2 cats. Help me.
You can check out my photography blog at pamelahelmephotography.com, follow me on Twitter, or stand outside my windows with binoculars. I am usually undressing around noon.
Oh and, LSG FTW.
