Hi Friends!

I am a crochet artist living in Spartanburg, South Carolina. I am currently a freshman at Spartanburg High School, with a dream of becoming a full time crochet business owner after graduation. You can find me at various events throughout the Upstate area. Come out to see me, I would love to meet you!

Inspiration

Reese is our family pet who is so loving and full of joy each day. He is the inspiration for all of my work, because whether it is your next favorite sweater or a plushie to squeeze, I try to create each item with the goal of bringing love, joy, and comfort to the recipient of each gift. I love to make custom pieces that will not just last for today, but to become a family heirloom. Contact me today so that I can start on your next personalized project!
