​In 2006, my best friend was pregnant with her first child and I wanted her to have a special gift from me; a gift that was handmade and from the heart. So I taught myself to crochet. 

On a trip to the mall with some other friends I got the crochet kit that changed my spare time and I haven't stopped crocheting since!

Although I've gotten much faster, I can honestly say this was my first large project and it took me sometime. But within this one element of the gift set, I learned multiple stitches, techniques and how to read a pattern and to alter a pattern to the effect I want.  (The pictures are a bit blurry.  I'm still trying to get my friend to send me an updated picture of the full set. But she's got it on lock down.)

When people saw the set I had made for her, they were very complimentary.  Then people started to ask, could I make this or could I make that.
​
As I worked on those requests, I became familiar with the different stitches and techniques I could use to create the things people wanted or didn't know they wanted...yet. And my business grew out of that desire to create a heartfelt gift and now I make things for other's to help create and give the same.

​I'm rarely without my hooks and a skein of yarn.
And I'm always looking for that next challenge or inspiration in peoples interests, whimsy or every day things around me for color choices and combinations.

I like to crochet for those who can't or are looking for a handmade gift with their personal touches. So while I make hats and scarves, it's the dolls, toys or characters that I take special pride in completing. I'm a big kid at heart!

I can't tell you how many times I've created something and wanted to keep it for myself, but I really love the reaction when I've captured what someone has been looking for in a gift.

Hopefully I have the perfect gift you've been looking for or can work with you to create it!
