I am 81 years of age, living happily with my husband Doug of 57 years in UK with 2 sons with families now in NZ.
I have been a hand and machine knitter since the age of 9. Having used knitting machines for over 55 years, demonstrated in shops also was a Tutor for Knitmaster for many years, having many classes in the area. I now have a Brother 950i Electronic Knitting machine with garter carriage,and PPD , of which I find great pleasure. I attend two classes where I still find I am not too old to learn something.

Im also interested in sewing and machine embroidery, I always like a challenge and like to design to make patterns to be different. My other hobbies are cross stitch tapestry, computer, photography and untill recently sequence dancing, and I'm never bored.
