About Lindsey Martin:

Erin Lane Bags

Erin.Lane began out of a simple principle: Necessity is the mother of all invention.

My Aunt Jan, who owned a yarn store in Michigan for 23 years, shipped yarn to my grandmothers house and taught myself, my mom, and all my cousins to knit.  It took me about an hour to figure it out, but soon there after I was hooked. (No pun intended.)

She equipped my mom and myself with yarn and a few needles, specifically Rowan wool and Addi Turbo needles.  It took me approximately five minutes after I returned home to realize that I couldn’t afford to knit well for long.  I lost 4 pairs of the needles my aunt bought me and knew it would take months to get them replaced.   So, I went to my mom, a master seamstress of 40+ years to ask her if she could help fix this problem.

We tinkered and toyed around and finally came up with a great design.  When I took that design to our local, weekly knitting group people “Oooed” and “Awwed.”  One woman asked if my mom could make her one on the way to our cars.  Mom told her the materials, and the next week my mom brought her the new KnitPack.  Then everyone wanted one.  Like lightning Erin.Lane was born.

The question I get asked the most is where did the name Erin.Lane come from if my name is Lindsey and my mother’s name was Lisa.  We tried it out and thought Lindsey.Lisa was just a little lame, so we decided to use our middle names.  Erin for me and Lane for my mom.  Ta Da.

    I have tried several times to listen to this podcast and keep getting a message that the audio is being processed and will be available shortly, but it does not come up. I have never had a problem accessing the audios before. I do not see other comments, so maybe others are also having problems.
