My name is Chelsea. I live in Oak Creek, Colorado with my husband and 3 dogs (Pickles, Ernie & Ruby). We run a whitewater rafting company together during the summer, & love getting outside whenever possible.

When you make a purchase from Prickly Pear Knitwear rest assured your support will be kept in our local community and shared with other small businesses much like this one. I will keep you updated here and in the blog. Know that your support will allow me to keep knitting & doing all the things I love.

I learned to knit almost 15 years ago. I didn't truly fall down the knitting rabbit hole until I started working with high quality fibers, my sensory issues wouldn't tolerate scratchy or abrasive yarns for much more than a project or two. Once I found lux ultra soft fibers I became extremely passionate and began learning everything I possibly could about knitting and different types of yarns. So here I am, sharing the things I love with the world & I feel blessed for the opportunity to do so.
