Welcome!

Welcome to my blog, Elite Stitches. I will be updating my blog on a regular basis with pictures of what I've been working on. You will have an opportunity to purchase any of the items I showcase. In most cases, you will also be able to choose the colors you would like, as I keep a small stash of yarns on hand. I take pride in my workmanship, and make every effort to ensure my clothing and accessories are the highest quality they can be.

A little about myself: Back when my children were young, I taught myself to knit and crochet. I have been knitting and crocheting off and on for over 30 years! Wow- where did the years go?? Then a few years ago, I bought my daughter a sweater for Christmas. Unfortunately, it didn't fit, but when she tried to exchange it, the store was sold out. We couldn't find another we liked, so she was without a sweater. Then I remembered- I know how to knit! I owe her a sweater! I can do this! So I've been seriously knitting and crocheting again for the past couple years. I find the crafts very relaxing. I thoroughly enjoy taking a piece of string, if you will, and turning it into something both beautiful and durable you can wear for years to come. Since my re-introduction to making hand made garments, I have been making shrugs, boleros, scarves, hats, tops & sweaters. I've also made a skirt and dress for my granddaughter. What fun! So come along with me on my venture. I don't pretend to know everything about knitting & crochet, but if you have a question, please add a comment and I'll try to answer if I can.
