"Granny G" was born in Nevada before the 2nd world war. She grew up on her grandfather's ranch in the Smokey Valley.

Her mom came from Australia and was an Irish Pagan who gave her the information to create the "7 Lazy Steps".

Her father and grandfather were Irish Catholics which provided the ideal opportunity to observe the 2 belief systems, and her early childhood was a wonderland full of animals and interesting people.

She now has a little yarn shop in Taos, New Mexico. Her early skills of knitting and crochet are real advantages.

She designs knitwear and shows her design in the shop. She gives encouragement and a retail outlet for many local artisans and yarn producers. "Granny G" lives with her younger sister, Suzie. Together, they grow fruit and vegies on the land and plan to have a milk cow soon!
