Hello,
I’m Vanessa Wood. I’m a techy-designer who works full-time as an independent website designer and WordPress consultant. When I left my last corporate position I created my first business, Miss Ewe Illustrations. The world was evolving into a much more digital place and my business evolved with it. As I became more and more engaged in building websites I changed my business to Design to Spec and illustrations now cook on the back burner.
In the tech world there are often long phone calls to customer service at hosting companies. To give my fidgety fingers something to do while on hold, I took up knitting again. I first began knitting when I was 9 years old. My first two projects were memorable: a lime green k2 p2 wool hat (not very practical in Southern California!) and little red mittens that were also impractical but looked very cute on our Christmas tree!
I didn’t knit for a few decades, so when I came back to it I found the knitting world was wonderfully different. Celebrities were knitting. Circular needles were creating magical things. The internet had connected knitters. Socks were being knitted in pairs or on two circular needles. What a different world for the beginner knitter!
I hope you enjoy me sharing my knitting experiences through my website. Please visit my other websites if you’re interested in more of what I do.
