Hello and Welcome,
Thank you so much for taking time out of your day to learn about me and my Senior Project. Senior Project is a year long project of our choosing. In the beginning of the year we are presented with the idea that we can pick any project we want as long as follows four main guidelines.

This experience has taught me a lot about patients, maturity, tenacity, and has reminded me to appreciate life and everything in it. Once again I’d like to thank you all for following me through my knitting journey and I hope you like learning about me and my
