Guest Star #2: Staring Mary Ann Martinez!

My name is Mary Ann and I love knitting and I knit every day. I find knitting to be relaxing and I try to make it interesting by designing my own patterns or changing patterns as I see fit. I am currently working on a silk, wool and cotton tunic sweater shown in the picture below.  I call it the Summer Spun Sweater since that’s the name of the yarn made by Farmhouse Yarns.
I’m having mixed feelings about it. I think the yarn is better for lace projects. Right now the sweater looks “straw-like” and rough looking. I will continue along though and finish it anyway since I’ve already gone a long way with it.


I also have a new pattern that I published on Ravelry. It is my first pattern that I am publishing to sell and I hope people have a good time knitting the pattern. It’s called the Waving Rib Hat. Here is the link:

I usually sit in my bedroom and knit every morning before I go to work. I work at a software company in New York City and though I enjoy my job very much, I like being able to stay home and knit when I have free time. Listening to music while I knit is also important to me and keeps me going. I love all kinds of music. That’s all I can write for now. Thanks for reading!
