When I first started my business, I started out by

When I first started my business, I started out by putting some of my items on display in my family's flower shop. It's been about ten years now, and it's so surreal to see my work in not one, but two small businesses!

If you are looking for some crocheted toys and accessories, be sure to stop by our spaces at Expressive Avenue in Lancaster, PA and Mayfield and Company in Hamburg, PA!

For those of you that have your own businesses, what experiences have you had with getting your items in stores?

Loving my new hook grip from @ruthlessdynamics @ruthless.crochet

I am normally a super tense crocheter, but the added length and wider base of the grip helps to loosen my tension, making it easier to crochet longer without getting tired!

In addition to the pretty colors, I also love that the flat bottom allows the hook to stand up when it's not in use. I highly recommend trying out one of these hook grips!

I'm using a 4.5 Susan Bates hook with my 4.5 grip :)

Such a sweet, silly goose!

@oakandmarlow kicked it out of the park again with this one! The Marjorie Goose pattern is such a fun, no-sew pattern to work up, and I love the little accessories that are included in the pattern!

You can find my full review of this pattern over on the Eye Love Knots blog!

What's your favorite way to dress up Marjorie Goose?

This trend was too cute not to do!

It's amazing thinking back to how far this crocheting journey has taken me! While I have been crafting and selling at a small business my whole life, I didn't learn to crochet until I was in my 20's! It would be so fun to be able to go back and talk to this version of me!

What would you tell your younger self about your crochet journey?

Shouting Happy Birthday to the quilter, the busine

Shouting Happy Birthday to the quilter, the business partner, the stand-watcher, the nurse, the wielder of the tiny crochet hook, and most importantly, the matriarch of our family - Lou Ann (aka Grammy)!

After retiring, she decided to start sewing for fun and joining me at shows selling her sewn baby items and kid's accessories alongside me. After a while, she has started to realize the fun in making microcrochet creations -especially earrings!

Now as a full part of T&C Crafters, you can find fun accessories made by Lou Ann, including earrings, bookmarks, and key chains, at all our booths and shows! Swipe to see some of her gorgeous work through the years!

Thanks for all you do for me and our family - this business would not be the same without your support!

Be sure to comment and wish Lou Ann a very special (milestone) birthday!!

Seriously, how cute is this little fidget caterpillar?!? She's bringing all the Valentine inspiration!

🐛 I loved working up the Camille the Mini Caterpillar by @allfromjade! It was such a fun and easy pattern to make, and honestly one of the best produced written patterns I have seen!
