Mel Martin and her husband, Dick Soderman, retired from the mountains of Essex Junction, Vermont, to the mountains of Cumberland, Maryland, in 2001. When they moved to the western counties of Maryland and found no yarn shop, it seemed that opening a yarn shop was the thing to do!
A former teacher with a strong art history background, Mel encourages and cheers on beginning and experienced knitters, and softens the blow when the mistakes are whoppers! And she uses her artistic sense to create a unique color experience for all who visit Millicent’s. Dick, a former IBM programmer, has also become the world’s best accountant. You’ll even occasionally see him in the shop – and you might occasionally see him knitting!
