After life chucked me a curved ball I decided I needed a new direction and to follow a career in what I enjoyed doing most, and so in March 2018 I opened a retail wool shop ‘The Crochet Lounge’ selling fine wools and yarns for both knitting and crochet.
I also ran crochet classes and workshops, the shop was filled with chatter and laughter, my working days were perfect!
But the shop fell silent with forced closure as the world battled Covid, and struggled even after the restrictions were lifted. In July 2021 a friend suggested that I put the patterns that I’d written for the classes on Etsy and so Crochet Lounge Design was opened. I am simply blown away that these crochet patterns are now selling across the world from Canada to Australia, it is more than I could have ever hoped for.
Because of this I have now closed the shop so that I can devote more time to designing and writing patterns, I have continued to run the crochet classes at home and so the chatter and laugher continues, my working days are perfect once again.
I am looking forward to bringing you more patterns to choose from and ready made items too!
For me Crochet is happiness, I hope that it is for you to 💕
