I learned to crochet from a lovely little Cuban lady named Mrs Echemendia when I was 11. I was totally hooked right away. I began making pot-holders and doilies for family and friends - and stuffed animals for myself - most of which were stuffed with wadded up toilet paper, lol.

As an adult, I continue to love crochet, and began making winter hats for my students, friends and family. This was when I began to be dissatisfied with 'average' yarn, and I began a fascinating journey of learning more about luxury yarns and exotic natural fibers. This in turn exposed me to Felt, and I found another passion.

Felt is likely the oldest type of fabric, certainly of non-woven fabric. People all over the world have been making and wearing felt items for thousands of years.
More recently, this craft is being rediscovered and redefined as Fiber artists are Elevating felt to a whole new level of fashion and function.

Flat caps happen to be my favorite kind of hat - perhaps it's my Welsh/Scottish heritage, and naturally the thought occurred to me that I should be able to make my own by crocheting or felting - and that is how most of my inventory came to be.

I'll be adding new felt and crocheted items regularly, as well as new patterns - so check back often!

And feel free to share what you like - I'd be happy to make something just for you!
