Welcome to Aberdeenshire in bonnie Scotland
I learned to crochet in 2013 by making a granny square, as you do! Once I picked that hook up I’ve never really put it down again. I taught myself the skill of amigurumi, pattern writing and counting… a lot of counting!!! Once the house was filled with animal heads and toys I decided to open this shop so others can enjoy my creations.
Colour is a huge influence on me, which is why you’ll find rainbow deer heads, green mice and pink elephants. I started out with basic animal heads which has grown as I became more confident creating complex and detailed soft sculptures. There literally isn’t anything I won’t crotchet as I love a challenge and the satisfaction when a piece is complete.
