Hi I’m Jane

Welcome! I’m so glad you’re here. Creativity has always been a vital part of my life—it’s my way of reconnecting with my intuition and recharging my energy. Whether I’m crocheting, knitting, drawing, or designing, I’ve discovered that creativity is a powerful and mindful way to be present and align with my energy. Over the years, I’ve learned that embracing multiple passions is my flow, and I love having a variety of projects on the go. Each one fuels the others, creating an endless cycle of inspiration.

I’ve been crocheting since I was 10, when my mom taught me on a family vacation. That first circular afghan was probably my first mandala, and from there, I dove into the world of geometric design and symmetry. My love for patterns led me to experiment with mandala art, and my process is slow and intentional—letting each design unfold naturally. After years of drawing and publishing designs, and writing a few colouring books, I returned to my roots in pattern design, balancing my creative passions and sharing them with others.

Beyond the yarn and patterns, my heart is in teaching. Whether I’m guiding you through a crochet tutorial, sharing a new technique, or simply inspiring you to explore your creative journey, my goal is to foster a space where you feel free to create on your terms. Life’s a beautiful balance of creativity, and I’m here to share that joy with you. So, enjoy and keep creating!

A bit more about me

When I met my husband, I was a true night owl—midnight was the perfect time for designing. But over time, he’s shown me the magic of sunrises, fresh coffee in hand, and now I’m more of an early bird.

I have two amazing adult kids who have inspired me in endless ways. There’s nothing quite like seeing the world through the eyes of a child, teenager, or young adult and being fully present in that journey. They are my world.

And then there are my two kitties—the definition of cuddly, furry, unconditional love. I honestly can’t remember life before them (though I suspect I traveled more and didn’t have to share my chair, food, or pillow quite so much!).

I enjoy discovering fresh concepts and innovative methods for creating, then sharing what I’ve discovered. My goal is to foster creativity and inspire others to explore, learn, and embrace new perspectives, empowering them to create and enjoy life on their own terms.

Enjoy and Keep Creating, Jane
