A Warm Welcome

How My Crocheting Journey Began

I first learned to crochet as a child, sitting beside my grandmother as she patiently guided me through the chevron stitch. At the time, I didn’t realize I was learning a skill that would stick with me for life. I put my crochet hooks down for years, not picking it back up again until my mid-20s. 

Crochet has become more than just a craft for me. It’s my way to relax, unwind, and keep my hands busy. It is amazing how something as simple as yarn and a hook can create beautiful pieces and a sense of calm.

Now, I’m excited to share my love for crochet through this blog. Whether you’re just starting or have been crocheting for years, I hope to inspire, connect, and celebrate the joy of creating with yarn together!

Why I am starting a Crochet Blog 

One of the main reasons I’m starting this blog is to share free crochet patterns that others have generously made. So many talented designers offer their work for free. I want to highlight these amazing patterns and share them with all of you. Whether you’re a beginner or have been crocheting for years, there’s always something new to learn. I hope this blog will be a place where we can inspire each other and share our love for this craft.

But my dream for this blog doesn’t stop there. As I develop my crochet skills, I aspire to create and share my own free patterns. I want to contribute to this wonderful, supportive community and offer patterns that anyone, no matter their skill level, can enjoy. It’s an exciting challenge, and I can’t wait to see where this journey takes me.

Most importantly, I want to use this blog as a way to share my experiences. Crochet isn’t just about finished projects. It’s about the process, the learning, and the little moments of joy along the way. I want to be transparent about my growth, the mistakes I make, and the little victories. I believe there’s value in sharing the successes and the struggles because we’re all learning and growing together.
