5 out of 5 starsAnn was so helpful in creating a particular scarf I had envisioned for awhile. Researching for sustainable materials and also making sure they fabric was soft enough for my sensitive skin. Thanks so very much Ann !! It's officially my favorite & lucky scarf!
Much Love,

5 out of 5 starsI can't live without wrist warmers. These are well made and very comfortable. No itch, not too tight, just right. :)

5 out of 5 starsPurchased for my petite sized daughter for Christmas. Fast delivery and good quality, nicely made item, true to photos. She was pleased with this gift and it's size was proportionate for her build. A better choice than many over sized infinity scarves for her.

My very first prototype and product shot. I was lucky to find a cup in just the right color!

Signature OpportunityKnits arm warmers in wool and fleece.
Stitching for Social Change
My shop and my product were inspired by a pair of fleece-lined fingerless mittens and my desire to link design and handcrafts to commerce that would drive social change.
The mission of OpportunityKnits is to support women in transition from prison back to community, family and employment. 10% of all sales is used to purchase personal care items, which I donate via my friends and former colleagues at Roadmap to Success, a local re-entry program.
My armwarmer design is the result of lots and lots of prototypes, starting with handknit pieces made from my yarn stash, a not-very-good pair of scissors, and my ancient Singer sewing machine. I've since graduated to a knitting machine (which still requires lots of elbow grease!) and a new sewing machine more up to the task.
If I can help even one woman get back on her feet - never to return to prison again - it will make all the dropped stitches, crooked seams, unexpected knots in yarn and broken needles worthwhile.
