My name is Marites. I started knitting when I was 16. My brother's girlfriend taught me but I wasn't really interested in knitting until I was about 22 years old. My first starbucks manager also knitted. He taught himself by reading knitting for dummies and I also had another co-worker who liked to knit. 2004 was the first time I finished my first scarf. From then on I started knitting hats on two straight needles. 2006 I taught myself how to knit with double pointed needles. I usually like knitting in the winter. One day I'll attempt to make a sweater!
