About


I was blessed with two dear Grandmothers who were wonderfully gifted and loved all the arts of handcrafting. At their knee, a wee little blonde girl learned the fine art of crochet under their wise tutelage. Now that little girl has grown up, enjoying a lifestyle that affords me the time to put hooks, yummy yarns and fibers back into my hands, returning to the joy and fun of the art of handcrafted crochet. The Hooked Haberdasher is the third company I’ve launched as a sole-proprietor and is my favorite! My hands are never idle; designing and publishing both free and paid crochet patterns. As a very detail oriented artist, I design and crochet with love, embracing the virtues bequested to me by those two beautiful Grandmothers.

    Wanting to know how to buy your patterns

      Good question, Rhonda! I just added a “shop” button in the menu which has two images where my patterns are for sale. Free patterns from me are under the button “free from me” :)

    Please explain Hair Elastic. Is it on a roll where do you buy it

    • The brand I purchased at my local Walmart was “goody” and i found them by the hair brushes and accessories – they are ponytail elastics, covered so they don’t rip your hair out — not like the old rubber bands used to. HTH <3

        Used lots of them to make bun covers for my girls when they had ballet classes
