Life happens.  Knit’n From the Heart represents my lifelong dream to own a fiber shop and to focus and share my creative passions.  At a young age, I learned to knit, crochet, sew, and quilt from my mother.  My dream was derailed when I became a single mom with two small children. I needed to find a full-time career – twenty years later I still have it to this day.  But knitting has always endured.

Family Business.  In 2007, Larry thought it was time I fulfilled my dream, and we took over From the Heart gift and yarn store from

Debbie Murphy.  We turned it into a full-service yarn shop and have attracted a fantastic team that shares my dream.  The shop has grown from there – knitters and crocheters from all walks of life – moms, professionals, kids, new and seasoned knitters – join us weekly.  We are known for our service projects throughout the year, fun events and social knitting groups. 

Vacation and Down Time.  I have a “vacation” every week when you will find me in the store most Friday evenings, weekends and holidays.  I particularly love working with reps and thinking of new ways that our shop can transform and evolve.  My own vacations revolve around visiting fiber artists and yarn shops all over the world.
