Welcome to Our Site

We are thrilled you are here!

In 2023, I celebrated my 50th year by learning to ride a motorcycle and crochet!

I’m almost entirely self taught. My MIL gave me a few very basic pointers of what to look for in patterns and then I was off to watch a lot of YouTube videos.

After spending over 1k hours in my first year crocheting, I had many requests to start a YouTube channel, so I did!

I’m left handed and dyslexic. It is definitely possible to learn. Just search for left handed crochet tutorials. And learn how to slow down the YouTube video so you can follow at an easier pace without having to rewind a million times.
