Micki
became hooked on knitting at her grandmother’s knee over 65 years ago and hasn’t put down her needles since. However, her designs definitely are “not your grandmother’s” knitting. Micki’s use of color and texture are bold—brazen even—and styled
for the 21st century.
Primarily
a knitter, Micki became a designer by necessity (her mind couldn’t stay wrapped around someone else’s patterns). Later, she was seduced by her small, motley flock of rare breed sheep to learn to
spin their fleece. The sheep have moved on to coerce yet another knitter. Their fleece, now yarn, grace many a sweater, a whole pile of accessories, with bits
and pieces still hiding in the “worm” basket awaiting incorporation into some hooking project or another. (Hooking
is the lesser of her fiber art addictions.)
