Linda first learned to knit at age 15. After having children and working, she did not knit for a period of 30 years. 10 years ago she decided to pick it up again and it was the best thing she did! Knitting gives her a sense of peace and has taught her patience. To her, knitting is an art form. She hadn't heard of Barbara Walker prior to this project, but is happy to have participated! Her favorite items to knit are sweaters, scarves, shawls, and patterns with cables and lace.Lexicon
