My name is Carlene St. Aimee. 

My mother taught me to knit when I was just in primary school (between the ages of 7 and 11). My first knitting needles were size 3 3/4 mm. When other little girls would take their dolls to school I took my needles and wool to practice. As I grew and became exposed to different skills and crafts knitting got left behind. One day I took up my 3 3/4mm needles (yes! I still have them) and started knitting again. 

After a while I suggested to my mother (who knits, sews, and crochets) that we should start our own little business. Thus, ARCA Creative Concepts was born!
