Hello! My name is Josie, and I would love to be your instructor. I have been crocheting most of my life and knitting for about 3 years now. I am almost completely self-taught, and I love a good challenge, so I like to tackle projects with new to me skills. I love making socks, sweaters, summer tops, and all kinds of other things!
