Yvonne has been crocheting since she was 4 and knitting since she was 8, though she had taken a hiatus from knitting for a few (read: 30+) years. She started knitting again after crocheting a baby blanket for a friend and has been pretty much a maniac stuck on knitting since then, though she still plays around with hooks from time to time. A mom of two teenage boys, Yvonne lives in Butler.
