New and improved blog-now with MONSTERS!

I have decided today while I wait hours on end for knitpicks to load that I would start a new blog.  For those of you who already know me, feel free to fast forward a paragraph or two.  For those that don't...allow me to introduce myself.

My name is Jessica (blushed on ravelry), I am a thirty-something year old woman residing in Pennsylvania.  I have been knitting for a little over 6 years now.  I started knitting shortly after my oldest brother passed away.  Some of my fondest memories as a child was watching my mother sitting in a chair knitting away on an afghan.  The sound the needles made clicking together was soothing to me.  Once my brother passed away, I needed something, anything, to get my mind off of everything that was going on.  I had decided to ask my mom to teach me how to knit.  Fast forward 6 years later and you can still find me most times with yarn and needles in hand.

Other than knitting, I love baking and am obsessed with trashy reality tv shows, Glee and HGTV.

Anyway, enough about me.  Let's get to the good stuff.  Lately I have been obsessed with Danger Crafts patterns.  Right now I need to start working on some of her monster ornaments for the girls at work, but for now I will end this post with pictures of some of the monsters I have knitted.
