Lake Crescent

My name is Lolly, and I live ever-so-happily with my husband and my pets in the DC suburbs. My days are spent organizing other peoples' things - I am an archivist and a records manager. In my "off hours", I knit like there is no tomorrow. I am also training to be a yoga instructor. I am a vegan who loves to bake and cook and show others that eating this way is not boring. I love nature and the outdoors. I read a lot of books. I watch a lot of hockey. I listen to public radio. I travel as much as I can and take lots of photographs.

My blog name, LollyKnitting Around, relates to my craft, but it is a personal blog that includes many facets of my life and my travels.

Thanks for stopping by!

~Namaste~

    "Lolly is such an inspiration to me. She explores each chosen subject into great depths and from unexpected angles. Take Project Spectrum for instance. Apart from doing all kinds of crafts suited to the theme at hand herself, she always finds the time to encourage others with her kind and observant words as well."

    "Lolly is one of those amazing individuals with always a kind word for others. She is encouraging and is also fantastic about getting people to participate in group projects to explore and improve their skills in their crafts. Not to mention she is a fantastic knitter, crafter, photographer, and blogger too. She is fun, upbeat and an all around great person - a real sweetheart!"

    "Lauren is that rare sort of individual who builds communities. Through Project Spectrum and Socktoberfest she's brought together all sorts of craft-y folks! She can also be found cheering everyone on with her rapid-fire encouraging comments on flickr. Top it all off with her really lovely knits--including some unbelievably speedy sweaters--and you've got one wonderful gal!"
