BEHIND THE BRAND

stitch /stiCH/

     noun

     1.  a loop of thread or yarn resulting from a single pass or movement of the needle in sewing,             knitting, or crocheting.

     2.  the basic thread that makes up the fabric of our lives. 

     3.  a symbol for some of life’s most enduring values- persistence, commitment, the importance           of taking life one step at a time, and of course, love.

My grandmother first taught me to knit when I was a little girl.  On that day, she ignited within me a passion for the Stitch.  There was such artistry in the knitted fabric we made together- soft materials, rich colors, a joyful sense of satisfaction in handling what we created.  And, of course, there was love.
In college, I developed a way to crochet in silver.  Lacy crocheted silver reminded me of the love my grandmother poured into me through our knitting lessons.  I knew I had to bring that feeling to my designs.
Crocheting in silver was only the beginning for me.  As I continue my jewelry work, I aim to fuse texture with materials, and share the creative process with you.  Every day, I remind myself of the moment I fell in love with the Stitch. 
Thank you for joining me on my journey.
