Hortense, a fervent knitter, crocheter, and yarn enthusiast, founded "Knitting with Chopsticks" to share her work and assist others in crafting. Having learned the fundamentals of knitting as a young girl and furthered her skills through blogs, she established her platform to simplify knitting and crochet for enthusiasts. An engineer by profession but a crafter at heart, Hortense often indulges in yarn crafting, accompanied by episodes of Grey’s Anatomy and a touch of Belgian chocolate.
