"I was most influenced by my very colorful Italian grandparents. My grandmother trained in Milan and was a master dressmaker and tailor, and my grandfather was an inventor and shoemaker. It was during my most formative years that I spent time with them, learning to sew, knit, craft, create and cultivate my love of invention."

this is the one that required me to learn how to knit backwards.
it's some slow progess & a bit of a circus.
lost a needle along the way.
