Who is Amy Artisan?

 

ar· ti· san

n : a skilled worker who practices some trade or handicraft

Welcome to my corner of the web.

 

Amy Artisan

Why Amy Artisan? When trying to decide what URL to claim as mine I wanted to choose something that encompassed lots of the things that make me “Me!” Looking at the definition for artisan it seemed to fit. I started this blog in January 2006 as a way to reinvigorate my knitting, chronicle the “handicraft” side of Amy Artisan and share other things that are a part of my world.

a skilled worker who practices some trade A lot of my time is spent on my trade – working as a business transformation consultant for a Chicago based business consulting & IT solutions firm. Sometimes work has me on the road – which can definitely impact the time for handicraft.

or handicraft When I’m not busy at work on my trade I enjoy many handicrafts, primarily knitting, scrapbooking, cooking, gardening and photography.

Since starting this blog I have enjoyed becoming a part of a community of crafters online – over the last several years I have had the opportunity to be a part of many “knitting for others” projects and meet up with friends that have been made through blogging.

In addition to the handicraft characteristics mentioned above, I also use this blog to share my love of books, travel and memories made with dear family & friends.

Thanks for stopping by!
