#yarnlovechallenge Week 1: Intros/What I make 👋🏼 Hiiiiii!! My name is Becky and I've been knitting for 13 years now. I loved Feb's Yarn Love Challenge! It kept me motivated and wonderfully connected to the yarn and fiber community here, and so I'm glad to continue weekly in March. Some fun facts about me: 1. Learned to knit from the book Stitch 'N Bitch that my MIL got me at By Hand Yarn Shop in Sonora, CA in 2014. I still wear my first scarf. 2. Born and raised in Hawaii. 🌊☀️🌈🌺🌴 I've lived away for 10 years now, but My Pidgin English (the local talk there) comes out when I'm tired, mad, or around other Hawaii people. #smallkine 😉 #noack #allpau #bumbyeyoulearn 3. Was a cheerleader for 9 years in junior high, high school, and college. 💙 #gomenehune 🌈 #gobows (In fact I think my cheer-mates may have been the ones who started calling me Bex.) 4. Met my husband when I was 17 at U of Hawaii. He was a 🏈 player and I was a cheerleader. I know, so cliche. 🙄 We dated for 3 years, broke up, then got back together after another 3 years. We celebrated our 13th wedding anniversary this past Dec. 💗 5. I ❤️ Jesus, and I'm also a pastor's wife. We just church-planted in gorgeous west Florida. @mannachurchfl 6. I don't like my food to touch on my plate. 😖 I have very clear, practiced food-touching rules. 😄 7. I'm not a yarn snob, though I do like the fancy stuff best. 🌟 8. I have 3 wonderful kids, two who just started loom knitting over Christmas!! 9. I LOVE to knit and carry security knitting with me pretty much everywhere. It makes me feel better. 😊 But I don't get to knit as much as I'd like to. (See number 8.) 10. I read novels A LOT. Esp YA fiction and fantasy. But my fave knitting novels are the The Beach Street Knitting Society & Yarn Club series by Gil McNeil. 😁 11. I knit mostly accessories and gifts. 🎁 12. My favorite emojis are ✨🤗😉😁 & of course... 💩!! . . . #knitting #knitstagram #knittersofinstagram #seebexknit
