Learn A Stitch Create A Scarf  (Leisure Arts #4518)
Like many of today's crochet designers, Mary Estok Nolfi learned to crochet when she was very young (age 7). But not under the guidance of her mother or grandmother. Mary learned by following the instructions in a kit to make a small stuffed toy poodle. Once the little poodle was completed, Mary was hooked. She's been designing and teaching crochet, as well as other needle arts, ever since. Mary holds a degree in Marketing which she followed with intense post-graduate studies in Architectural Design. She also pursues Interdisciplinary Studies in Fine Crafts whenever time allows. Mary, her husband Douglas, and their adopted toy poodle Pierre, all currently reside in Williamsburg,VA.
