Welcome to my little shop. I started here on etsy back in 2009 as exclusively a crochet artist. At that time I specialized in crocheted garters and while searching for suppliers for materials for that started to run accross items other Etsy friends of mine were looking for, and thus was born the hairbow supply items of the shop. I also had a friend request the scrubbers and soon they over ran the shop as everyone told me of how they use to get them from their grandma, but now can't find them anywhere. So even though it may look a bit random all the shop really does tie together in some fashion. I still include CrazyZ as part of my team although he hasn't had time for caramels in a couple years, plus the caramels don't really fit in anywhere, but he is still a behind the scenes helper. Finally for a period of time we included items made by our oldest 2 children, and those have moved into their own shop http://www.moeskidz.etsy.com
As my first love, crochet items are honestly priced by time and materials involved. This is how I have been able to stay here on etsy for as long as I have. Otherwise you may notice other cheaply made and/or underpriced shops that pop up and disappear just as quickly. I do everything I can to ensure you can find well made and great crocheted items from year to year, in a great range of colors, only limited by discontinued items from suppliers. I'm also more than willing to take on most custom request as long as a pattern can be found, and pricing for those items is based on this same model for recreating the project, I do not charge you for my time to learn the pattern/techniques.
I'm fairly self taught as far as the crochet goes, although I was introduced and originally began crocheting with the aid of my mom and support of my grandma. They however were very stuck in their ways and not very adventurous on making more than a couple of styles of blankets. As I have difficulty in staying happy with little variation in projects, I then had to teach myself how to do new stitches and read patterns to become the level of artist I am today. I do thank my family for teaching me the art as a child, and than supporting my efforts of bettering myself with this art as a disabled adult.
In addition most recently I have started a podcast/blog/vlog, if you will, over on youtube. Please search for Unseen Strands, as we are still under 100 subs we cannot have an official youtube link yet. There I share not only the strands of crochet life, but just the unseen bits of life as a blind person in today's world.

Thanks for taking the time to check us out!
