Norah grew up in an artistic household with a dad who illustrated science fiction and a mom (also an illustrator) who passed on a love for fabrics and taught her how to sew and crochet. Norah's book Knitting Nature brought together her love of knitting with her degree in Biology. After working as a design director for several yarn companies -- her most recent gig was 9 years at Berroco -- she's currently an independent designer working out of an old boilerhouse studio in Harrisville, New Hampshire.   Find Norah on the web Web site –  norahgaughan.netRavelry – http://www.ravelry.com/designers/norah-gaughanInstagram – norahgnFacebook – https://www.facebook.com/norahsgaughan?ref=br_rs
