I’m a business/system analyst at Information Technology (IT) sector and former yarn shop owner. In my free time I either knit or crochet, whatever come to my mind without any particular preference to the stitch technique. Not all my patterns I can describe on the paper because I prefer making anything with less seaming. So, many of my patterns are seamless or with minimum seams – meaning that many of my patterns are for advanced knitters and crocheters.
I make a note when my pattern is not easy …. I would like you to finish my pattern and if it happens that you bought my design and you have a question please send me an email at HEADWATERWOOL@gmail.com

This is an active email since I closed my yarn store in 2010-12 ( I actually don’t remember what year exactly I closed my store) and I reply back promptly for last 7 years supporting my designs. I even support my old customers from my past Headwater Wool shop!

My blog russianpickle.wordpress.com/ is not active and I lost my password to this blog, also the technology is not the same as before and honestly, I have no time to re-do my blog. The status of this blog is that I don’t know how to delete it. There is some historical info about Russia, please have a look if the history of this country is your interest.

My husband, Igor, is still supporting his site where we posted our very, very first videos about Russian knitting technique back in 2000.
Here is his site:
