Welcome to Victorias Best Knits

Hello, just to give some background about myself and business, I started crocheting first at the age of 10, and progressed to knitting at the age of 13ish.  I did not really get into it at that time, because I was just taught to crochet by my mother, and taught to knit by my sister.  However, I didn't get so involved in knitting and crocheting until about 5 years ago when I passed by a knitting store and spent hours there (not to mention a lot of money!) and made a bag that I still cherish to this very day.  You can see some of the projects that I did on this website.  One of my good friends, Andrew Guidone, who is the host of a show on a local cable access network called "Arts Insight" (aired in Brooklyn and Manhattan, go to www.artsinsight.com for listings) and he had me as a guest and from there I got a reply from the principal of a public school and was asked to help teach the children how to knit and I obliged.  I offer both knitting and crochet lessons (both private and group lessons) where everything is provided to make a very basic project.

I recently added a photo album located at the top of the page that will show you more of the finished projects that I have completed.

I am also putting some very informative links on the basics of knitting and crocheting.  If you are a novice knitter or crocheter or have never knitted or crocheted before, then this is the first place you should look.  If you are having any problems with a project, please email to me what the problem is.  If need be, we can set up a webcam session.

This is a shawl that is both knitted at the collar, then crocheted at the skirt.
