| Introduction | I took up knitting in November of 2007 as a way to express creative urges and because it always fascinated me. I started Fiber of My Being as the blog of a new knitter, in hopes that other new knitters can share my experiences and perhaps even learn with me. I live a (usually) quiet life in the hills of Pennsylvania with my partner Tom, a cat, two dogs, and an aquarium full of fish. |

Why don't you ever wear a scarf? It doesn't need to be cold outside for your neck to feel naked.
I do wear scarves, and I knit them too!
