From a young age, art and crafts have been a passion of mine. After completing my college education, I embarked on a professional career in the tech industry, working as a Senior Software Automation Engineer at PayPal for 8 years, followed by a role as a Software Associate at JP Morgan Chase. While my work in these fast-paced environments was rewarding, the demands left little time for pursuing my creative interests.
Driven by my passion for art, I made the decision to transition from my corporate career to fully embrace my love for creativity. I am currently teaching Crochet, Knitting and Embroidery to both kids and adults, sharing my skills and knowledge with others while following my artistic ambitions.
Slip Stitch – This is a basic stitch to attach 2 yarns. When you want to stitch the sides of one block of yarn with another piece. We will have more projects on when to use this stitch.
