Kathy Norris has a passion for fiber arts that began over 30 years ago when she started knitting with needles.  She taught herself to knit using a knitting loom while teaching at Michaels Arts and Crafts in Southern California.  In addition to knitting, Kathy is an accomplished bead and crochet artist. 

Kathy’s first loom knit designs were used in her classes to teach others to use the loom.  In 2005, she began publishing her designs online and with various publishers.  She writes the Keeping You In Stitches column for Loom Knitter's Circle, as well as contributing patterns to the e-zine.

Kathy has been married to her husband and best friend since 1982.  They share their home in Choctaw , OK with their daughter and 3 dogs along with her yarn and bead stash.
