Heather first learned to knit from her grandmother, but as they lived in different locations, ultimately lost the knowledge between visits. She struggled for years trying to learn again after her Amma passed away, it wasn't until living abroad for university that she found someone who knit "the same way" her Icelandic grandmother did, and was finally able to pick it back up. 

 

Knitting was the gateway craft that lead her to exploring all things fibre. Along with knitting, Heather crochets, spins, weaves and sews. Knitting lace shawls is her first love and what she reaches for when feeling the need to destress from school or work.
