I learned to knit from my maternal, Italian grandmother when I was young. I struggled with it and put down the needles for many years. I've picked up the needles again and have jumped right in!

I started knitting simple scarves as gifts; then friends started having babies and I learned to knit baby cardigans. I got comfortable with baby items and started knitting hats and cowls. I realized I loved the process of knitting, creating something from sticks and strings and that I was buying more and more yarn (and running out of room)!

Knitley Road became a way for me to share my love of knitting with the world. I treasured the knit items made for me and I hope Knitley Road customers will do the same.

I've become entranced by the pattern-writing process; my ultimate goal is to write a sweater pattern.

I run Knitley Road entirely; knitting, photographing, listing, and marketing the shop on social media. I've partnered with other artisans with some of my knitting kits and I love the collaboration it brings.
