About Twisted Granny
Explore my crochet journey and the mission behind every stitch. Learn about the values and purpose that drive The Twisted Granny.
My crochet journey spans more than five decades, shaped by countless hours with yarn in hand, a love for texture and color, and a deep respect for craftsmanship. Every blanket and every pattern I create is designed, written, tested, and perfected by me—one stitch at a time. There is no outsourcing, no shortcuts, and no mass production here. What you see is the result of experience, patience, and a genuine love for the craft.
The Twisted Granny was built on more than creativity—it was built on purpose. Many of my crochet blankets begin life as prototype designs, created while developing new patterns for my shop. Once their design work is complete, these blankets don’t get tucked away or forgotten. Instead, they are donated to women and children's shelters, where warmth, comfort, and kindness are needed most. This philosophy of create with intention, give with heart is the foundation of everything I do. Crochet, for me, has always been about more than yarn and hooks—it’s about care, connection, and showing up for others in quiet but meaningful ways.
Through The Twisted Granny Showcase Blog, I share donation updates, behind-the-scenes glimpses of my creative process, and news from The Twisted Granny Shop. It’s a place for fellow makers, supporters, and anyone who believes that handmade work still matters. The blog’s personality is friendly and informative. Whether you’re here to follow the donation journey, explore new patterns, or simply enjoy the stories behind the stitches, I’m grateful you’ve found your way here.
