I learned knitting from the ladies at my job. A luncheon chat, chew and knit. They were knitting beautiful projects and invited me to join. I watched and practiced with them. Thinking this looks really complicated. But I was so excited and amazed of the final products the ladies were making. I was determined to continue attending and practicing the basic cast on and moved on from there. TH-cam was my best friend for practicing. Fast forward the rest is history. I’ve been knitting now for about 7 years snd love it.
You have been my source to go to ever since I found you. You have a great story and I wish you much luck for the future ♥️♥️♥️♥️
I'm so happy you are finding value in my videos and that you discovered me! Thanks for your kind words 🥰
Thanks so much for sharing your story. It was great to learn about your journey and how you handled adversity. By the way, you didn't mention your class for lefties. I think it's a great idea and I'm trying to convince one of my buddies to try it.

Very inspiring! Thank you so much for sharing!
Hi, I just found about you! I’m so happy that I did! I’m a beginner knitter. You are so helpful with your videos. Thank you! ☺️
Hi Nancy: Thanks for sharing your story. Can't believe your daughter will be 21 and hoping your husband is healing well. I so appreciate all your knowledge and assistance with knitting/crocheting. You were such a big help to me when I started my foundation and I greatly appreciate it! Keep up the great work and enjoy your new home. Best, Margie Rosenberg
Hi Margie, Great to hear from you! I can't believe she'll be 21 either, it seems like yesterday Melanie was babysitting for her and now she's a mom, too. I bet you love being a grandma! Do you still have the foundation? If so, do you take knitting/crochet donations? Thanks for your kind words, the new place is great. We are right on the water in Newport Beach and I've been paddle boarding almost every day.
Hi Nancy! I just stumbled upon this and it was so wonderful to hear your full story! You are a true gift to the knitting world! I'm so happy that you are close by. Hope your husband is all better now. xoxo
Dear Nancy,
I also want to thank you for sharing your story. Listening to your journey deepens my connection to your blogs and site. I’m glad your husband is faring well. I share the challenge of having a husband with health concerns, which has certainly increased during the pandemic. I’m so happy your move has brought your some peace and balance. I’m looking forward to joining your Facebook group. Keep up the good work!
Hi Cathy, thanks for your kind words. I'm wishing you peace and good health to you and your husband during the pandemic. Your knitting friend, Nancy 😀

What an amazing story. Thank you for sharing. I love crochet and knitting, like you say, it is very relaxing. May God keep blessing you, your family and your talent.
Hi Rosa, thank you for such kind words. Your knitting friend, Nancy 😀
Wow your story is amazing 👏🏾👏🏾. You give me confidence that I can follow my dream and design a pattern. Thank you for sharing
You can! Go for it! Let me know if you have any questions, too 😀The hardest part is the FIRST pattern!
Thanks for sharing your journey!
Hi Lori, You're welcome! 😀
Hi Nancy! I was one of those lucky makers who found your booth and beautiful crochet patterns at Stitches back in the day. Thanks for elevating crochet with your designs.
knitoriousmrsb, Oh my! I remember that show with such fond memories. I'm glad to know you where there. 😀
Thanks so much for sharing your story. Fascinating background. Loved how you transitioned from fashion to the fiber arts. I have followed you for a few years having stumbled on your on-line store. Best of luck, stay safe.
Hi Katie, thanks for your kind words. I'm glad to know you were part of the online store. You stay safe, too...and happy knitting! 😀
I enjoyed listening to your story. I have been following you for about a year trying to learn to knit. It's a slow process. I crochet all the time but want to knit too. Noble U may be the next step in the process thanks to your knowledge and hard work. Thank you for the encouragement I receive watching your tutorials. They are fantastic. Stay well and best wishes on your journey. 👍 💗 👍
Hi Claudette, thank you for your kind words! 🥰Making the jump from crochet to knitting is easy especially if you start off with Continental knitting. It's like crocheting with knitting needles. Have you tried it?
I found you when I was searching for help with various knit stitches. During quarantine my local store and knitting support so I had to go TH-cam and the internet for help. Thank you for sharing your inspiring story! Keep up the wonderful work !

Hi Lynn, I'm so happy to provide the knitting help you needed during this time. You may want to check out some of my knitting courses as well! You'll learn a lot and get interesting and fun project ideas: www.nobleknitsu.com/collections
Very interesting! 😀 I found you by searching YT for beginner knitting for lefties. I am a lefty and I crochet as well, for about 10 yrs now (I picked it up again then, I learned the change and SC when I was 19)
Hi Cindy, I'm so glad you discovered me and that you're a fellow leftie! What are your favorite projects to knit or crochet? 🤩
@@nobleknits I'm just learning to knit, and still trying to get the hang of TENSION, my knit stitches look atrocious at the moment 😅 ....but crochet, I have made all kinds of things, from amigurumi to a few bags (cotton yarn), part of a Frank O' Randle pattern (Tides of Change) it's in the WIP tote 🤫, hats, a couple dog sweaters, and a few blankets. I have ADHD (recently found out, which explains a lot LOL) and Blankets kill me, but I have made a few (for my 2 kids, and other friends and family-blankets and baby blankets) right now I am making the Pumpkin Face Throw blanket from Yarnspirations for my son's GF, I'm Hoping to have it done by Halloween, I'm not the fastest crocheter, because I'm such a perfectionist (and I can't sew to save my life, so the faces look like picasso faces sewn on LOL) she Loves Halloween and Fall holidays and does not know I am making it for her 😁 .....one more square to make the bits for and then the real fun begins of joining the 9 squares in black yarn 😬 Sorry for the long reply 😂
Thank you so much Nancy for sharing your story!
Hi Creative Garden, textiles is one of my favorite topics! Are you still working in the industry? 😀What type of work did/do you do?
Wow. That is a story! I found you because I’ve wanted to learn to knit for years! I have tried in the past, but being left handed made it very difficult. I could not find anyone, that could show me, the proper way. This was quite some time ago- before the internet and TH-cam. I decided it’s time to try again and here you are! I have learned the long tail cast on (from a different channel 😳) but your beginner continental videos are perfect. Of course I still struggle like crazy, but there is light at the end of the tunnel.I will be taking your classes! Thank you. Hope the hubs is feeling better!
Hi Candy, Thank you for your kind words! I'm so glad you have chosen to dive back into knitting. Now that you're learning lefty the proper way, I'm sure your knitting will take off! 😀
I'm so happy I saw this! God has given you such a beautiful and wonderful personality! I hope your husband is doing better than ever :)
This video was and is very encouraging, as I am setting up my crochet & knit shop and I look forward to this crazy ride that I may be in for... but I have a passion and I want to work hard at it! May God bless you and your family, stay well and keep on crocheting and knitting!
Much love ❤😊
Thank you for your kind words! I'm so glad to hear you are setting up a knit & crochet shop - we can always use more of those. Best wishes in your endeavor! 🥰
@@nobleknits You are absolutely welcome and thank you 🤗
Thank you so much for sharing your story. I am a knitter and I love it. I had a vision to start a knitting business. I would love to talk with you. Wendy Carr. I knit shawls, blankets. hats and more.
I would be interested in your substituting yarn course you mentioned in this video. Thanks
Hi Kate! Working on putting it together now - I'll keep you posted when it launches! 😀
How did you acquire the yarn for the kits and eventually the retail store?
Hi SnowyOwl knitter, Great question! When I found out I was going to be going on QVC, I contacted a yarn company I had been working with for a while. They partnered with me to provide the yarn and allowed us to use their warehouse and staff to pack the kits. When I opened the store, selected yarn brands I was familiar with and knew customers would love. As sales improved, I kept adding more and more yarns to the shop.
How is your husband’s health now?
Hi Ilo, that's so kind of you to ask. He is doing very well. We just need to be extra careful about keeping him safe during this time because he is at high risk due to his heart health problems. 😷
