Author Bio
Christine LeGrow & Shirley A. Scott
Christine LeGrow was born and raised in St. John’s, Newfoundland. After a long career in retail she began Spindrift Handknits, a thriving cottage industry that creates local designs that are knit by Newfoundlanders.
Shirley Anne Scott, also known as “Shirl the Purl”, is a Come From Away who made her home in St. John’s in 2006. A librarian by profession, in 1989 she wrote Canada Knits, a history of Canadian knitting that opened many doors.
Both are lifelong knitters with a keen interest in the fascinating traditions of the wonderful place they live in. In the midst of busy lives they have co-written four popular books, Saltwater Mittens, Saltwater Classics, Saltwater Gifts and Saltwater Socks.
Christine and Shirley love to celebrate the art of living in Newfoundland through its knitting.
Saltwater Mittens won the Best Atlantic Published Book Award in 2019 and the Saltwater Knitting Series won the 2021 Atlantic Canada Craft Award for Excellence in Product Design.
