Happy place
At the beach surrounded by friends tangled with the knowledge that I’m going home to my family (especially when the dog is calm and the babies are asleep 🤪)

How does knitting for LAD compare to other jobs you’ve had in your life?

I can tell you the boss is A LOT nicer than when I sold hot tubs.

What impact has being a maker had on you and your family?

Other than all the wool embedded in the carpet I think it’s part of the lifeblood of our family to be honest. It brings me so much joy and calm as well as excitement and I think when it’s your business the whole family live it with you in a way? We’re all invested in ‘a good jumper’ and always wrap our presents with yarn bow.

What do you see as your greatest achievement?

Without a doubt it’s that I’ve managed to cultivate a business that is held together by the most incredible women. I’m under no illusions that it’s all my doing – a lot of it is luck and the universe, but creating a career that supports me and other women (who I love) that doesn’t even feel like work in the slightest, is one of my biggest joys. How lucky am I?!

If you could give a friend one piece of general advice, what would it be?

Find the people who bring you joy, wrap them up tight and do not let them go (and do the exact opposite for the energy vampires, no matter who they are in your life… you don’t need that shit babe)
