About Me:: I'm the vice president of marketing for Knit Picks. We have an amazing and talented team of artists and knitters who handle the marketing, I just try to help them work their magic.

I learned to knit two months after I started here. My mom taught me on Christmas Eve 2007. People here often call me a "fearless" knitter because I jumped right in to lace, garments, and more intermediate projects. But I say that's because I have an entire tribe of knitting experts here who can help me get out of any knitting jam.

What's your Ravelry ID (if you have one)? (www.ravelry.com): mhextreme

The pattern is the Shoulder Shawl out of Victorian Lace Today. I used… Continue

Are you buying gift cards this holiday season?

Buying a gift card is a bitter sweet activity for me. On one hand, I'm giving a gift that gives in two ways--you get it as a gift, then they get to go shop with it, so it kinda doubles the enjoyment. Also, of course, they get exactly what they want.

On the other hand, it's kind of impersonal and can carry that negative connotation that I didn't put much thought into it.

The designers at Knit Picks have saved the day.…
