"I was taught to knit by my aunt when I was 9.  I didn't really pick up crochet until somewhere around 1994.  I've been teaching since February, 1982, and bought Skeins On Main January 1, 2009.  There's nothing I love more than sharing my knowledge of knitting and crochet, and watching as people "get it" or accomplish something they didn't think was possible.  When I'm not knitting, crocheting, or running the shop (which is pretty much never), my husband and I love to visit different areas around our beautiful United States.  My other passions are my animals (3 dogs and 3 cats), cooking and baking."
   
Sue Hendricks - Instructor

"I was taught to crochet by my grandmother when I was very young.  After many years of refusing to learn how to knit, I finally gave it a try.  Now I teach both techniques.  I work a full-time day job, so you'll normally see me at the shop during evenings and/or weekends."

"I taught myself to knit at 23 years old, when I decided it would be a wonderful idea to make a sweater (complete with a kitty cat face) for my toddler.  When I actually accomplished this with surprisingly few mistakes - hey, seams showing on the outside is a design element... design element, people! - I was hooked and have been knitting as life allows ever since.  When I'm not in the shop, working on my current knitting project, or making natural skincare products, you'll find me avoiding the housework with a variety of hobbies ranging from gardening, to mud runs, to target shooting, to sitting on the beach."
