About Me

Hi there! Thanks for checking out my blog. I’m so happy to have you here.

I like being goofy 🙂

My name is Kathryn, and I set up this blog to talk about my knitting. I have been knitting for about 5 years, though I learned when I was in middle school. Knitting is a way for me to relax, challenge myself, meet new friends, and make beautiful things. I figured out a few years ago that my driving force is to create things people use or enjoy, and knitting fits right into this.

That driving spirit is not just about knitting though. It’s what keeps me engaged at my day job at an insurance company, working on process improvement to make other people’s jobs easier. It’s also why I do theater – the name of this blog comes from my love of working on a show. I’ve done everything, from front of house to costumes to set building to run crew and even some on stage things. I also love food – both cooking and eating at good restaurants.

I’d love to connect more – I can be found on Instagram as backstagekath and Ravelry as backstagekatknits


Let’s hang out!
