About Me

 






Hi! I’m Tracee, a designer, blogger and yarn enthusiast. I have had a passion for arts and crafts since I was a little girl. Crochet caught my attention when I was pregnant with my first child and wanted a pretty crochet baby blanket. No one I knew could crochet so I bought a book, a couple of hooks, and some yarn and taught myself. It was love at first hook! That was more than 35 years ago. I started dabbling in design and blogging a few years back and then I began this website called Knot 2 Sassy. 


My husband and I farm in southern Minnesota. We raised 3 children and now have 9 grandchildren. When I’m not playing with the grands, I enjoy a good mystery or sci-fi book or movie, getting together with friends for coffee, a little cross stitch and even some knitting now and then.
