Rebecca Croden

My name is Rebecca and I’ve been crocheting almost all of my life. I learned the basics at a very young age from my mother, who made the most beautiful baby afghans (blankets) and washcloths. For the last 9 years I take my crocheting with me everywhere I go. Initially people started asking me to make crochet hats for them. I sold many custom winter toques with peoples’ names crocheted into them or words like “love”, “hope” and “peace”. I have since become inspired to create different wearable crochet items including halter-tops, water bottle sleeves, ‘stuffed mushroom’ pouches, earrings, princess tiara headbands and more. I sell my creations at craft shows, through social media and to returning clients who order from me every year. The crocheting possibilities are endless, so I try focusing on the items I enjoy creating most. There is a special niche market of individuals who appreciate meticulous hand-made clothing, and my shop is aimed at this group. You can visit my website at www.crochetculture.ca to see my work and upcoming craft shows and workshops. I look forward to teaching other people how to crochet so that this craft can spread and thrive!
