5. How long have you been in business, and what inspired you to open your business?
My
teaching business, Knit-a-Gogo, Inc was started in 2006. The retail
shop grew out of that business (after a lot of begging and pleading by
my students!). We opened our doors in July 2009.
6. What's your favorite thing about having your business?
I
love being inspired by my customer’s creativity. Every day, someone
points out a new great pattern that they found or puts together two
colors that I would never have thought of putting together. I really
have the greatest job in the world.
