About Us
The Company
Please note that Hooked Creations sells only the crochet
instructions for
making the individual items. We do not sell the completed crochet projects. Hooked
Creations opened for business in February 2014. We started with a small, select
number of patterns and our numbers just keep growing!
Hooked Creations grew out of a love for crocheting, designing, and an overwhelming desire to figure out how to make
things with yarn, not forgeting the awesome kids who kept asking “Mommy can you
make me something like this?”
Combine all of that that with a love of computer
graphics and a desire to sell crochet patterns over the internet, and here we
are!
Of course, it did not happen overnight! Much time,
work, and energy goes into Hooked Creations. We strive to create multiple new patterns every day along with maintaining our excellent customer service and support. With the ongoing love
and support of family and friends, Hooked Creations grows just a
little more every day.
The Patterns
All of our patterns have been quality tested, and are written in US terms. Every pattern comes complete with a US/UK crochet terms conversion table, and easy to understand instructions with pictures for how to complete the stitches required for the pattern. All of our graphghan patterns come with a full size (across multiple pages) symbols on color graph, written instructions, and color block instruction for the graph. So whether you prefer to work from a graph or hate the counting and like it written out, our patterns have both. The items for sale within our site are for digital patterns only. The PDF file of the pattern will be available for instant download once payment is confirmed. If you have any questions about the pattern or the download process, please contact us. Due to products being available for instant download, no refunds are available.
The
Designers
We have been so fortunate to have been designing in
crochet and other needlework forms for over 20 years!
There will always be a small part of me that
wishes I had kept better track of some of my earlier works, as many of my
designs have since been lost in the wind, and I often find myself going back
and trying to recreate many of them. Give
me time, and a crochet hook, and wait and watch the magic happen.
Needlework as well as many other DIY craft forms
have always come naturally to me. As much as I may have wished someone would
have taken the time to sit down and teach me, the fact is I am completely self-taught.
I started hand sewing doll clothes when I was in my early teens. From there I learned embroidery and cross
stitch, then worked up to latch hook and plastic canvas. I wanted so many times to learn how to
crochet, but I just couldn’t figure it out from books alone. Then along came the magic of Youtube! Video
after video of different people showing different techniques and methods, explanations
about hook sizes and yarn types, and best of all, instructions about how to
read crochet patterns. It finally all
clicked into place. With a little trial
and error, it was not long before I started writing my own patterns. Crochet has been my full-time passion for
over 10 years now. I have been lucky enough to turn that passion into a design
business!
