Tina is what  you might call a universally passionate fiber artist, and her love for fiber arts of all sorts run deep and into the realm of obsessive.  Tina has been knitting for 15 years, crocheting for 30+, and all manner of other fiber arts for years in between that span. Tina’s motto is that yarn and tools make for a happy brand of crazy that everyone should aspire to, and she would  love to share that “madness” with you.  “I believe everyone can create awesomeness, with enough practice and perseverance.” (Tina)
