Hi I'm Meg .
My shop derived its name from my childhood nickname “ Tig " . Knitting has been a part of me since my childhood when I used to pretend to knit while I was listening the kindergarten on the radio . My passion for handmade continued to be a major part of my life as I sewed and knitted most of my own and my children's clothes . I've now been knitting for them and their partners and our eight grandchildren . You'll see most of them in my product shots . My pdf knit and crochet patterns are also on Bendigo Woollen Mills website and LoveCrafts . I've sourced yarns which use ethical , sustainable , environmentally friendly practices in their production for my new rompers and cable beanies . Without Izzy Lou ( my paternal grandmother) and Audrey May (my mother ) I wouldn't have my skills to make or design handmade items , my strong feminist ideals or my love of reading Australian authors such as Thea Astley . I hope that I can pass my knitting and crocheting skills on to my grandchildren so that they can share my passion for making handmade items . In the meantime , they love raiding the tubs of finished items to discover new beanies and even make up their own designs for me to knit .
Meg
