My name is Karen and my grandmother taught me how to knit in 1997. After a long hiatus, I picked my needles back up in 2006 and haven't put them to rest yet! I am currently both a sample and test knitter for various designers and Kaleidoscope Yarns. Several of my personal designs will be available later this year...stay tuned for the future of choo choo knits...the best is yet to come!
