Knitting
Guild member since 2010
Lynn started knitting because she felt a need to create something after her husband’s family home was destroyed by Hurricane Katrina. A distinguished attorney and former newspaper reporter, she used her investigative skills on her new craft, and soon graduated from simply knitting patterns to complex artistry. For her, every project is an adventure, a gift of the spirit as well as the hands. It is also a gift everyone can share, requiring only an inexpensive outlay of equipment and materials and an unlimited imagination.
