Jane's mother taught her to knit when she was a child. She has lived in New York City for most of her life, and currently works in a yarn shop -- a perfect match for her! She knits baby items, sweaters for her and her son, gifts for family and friends, and more recently she has been obsessed with knitting shawls. She is constantly referring to Barbara Walker's knitting treasuries and finds them indispensable.Lexicon
