ABOUT THE DESIGNER

Sarah Smith lives in Northampton, Massachusetts. She just learned how to knit last January, but has been so productive that she had to get herself a website. Taught in the "fake it 'til you make it" school of knitting, Sarah prefers to knit without a pattern and felt a little insulted having to use a row counter.
