Notes

Susan's mother taught her a variety of needlecraft, including crochet, cross stitch, and basic knitting. Later in life, Susan took a knitting class at a yarn store and became serious about knitting, enjoying its calming effects and how it allows her to escape from the concerns of her daily life. Her favorite items to knit are hats for babies in the NICU! Although her family moved often due to her husband's military career she feels fortunate to have found a group of crafters at every duty station.
