I am so fortunate to be supported by such an incredible group of testers who ensure all our patterns are spic and span!

“Hey, I’m Julie, & I have crafted all my life. I was taught how to crochet at 16, & have crocheted on & off ever since. I do find as I’m getting older, I tackle harder projects – a good friend told me, it’s easy, don’t look at the end product, break it down in to manageable parts, & since doing that, I have become way more adventurous.”

“Hello! I am Hope. I taught myself to crochet at the age of 20 while on bed rest with my first child. My grandma tried to teach me when I was younger, but I’m left handed and she gave up in frustration. I live in Colorado, and crochet nightly. I’m always looking for a new project and am so happy to test any crochet patterns I can. I’d love to learn to knit, but have not quite gotten the hang of it yet”
