I started in the needle arts business in 1963, as co-owner of a small yarn shop. When the shop closed, 12 years later, I became the needlework instructor at Bloomingdale’s in White Plains, New York. Since then, I have written 32 books, the most recent being ONE PIECE KNITS,

I have had many designs in knit and crochet publications, and in many multi-authored hard cover books. I have also done many designs for yarn companies. I teach knitting and crocheting workshops all over the country and I have been teaching in my local yarn shop in Pawing, NY for the past 30 years. Sadly, The Yarn Box, recently closed its doors. I still love teaching, and I have recently started a group of fiber artists. We meet in the Methodist Church in Pawling, NY, every Wednesday from 2 to 5. This group is growing rapidly, and presently we have 25 members.

I love all aspects of both knitting and crocheting, but
combining knitting and crochet in free form designs, is my passion. I have been inducted into the Jean Leinhauser Crochet Hall of Fame. Forgot to mention, I turned 91 Jan, 3, 2026.
