Penelope Designs I am a crocheter, knitter, sewer, and stay-at-home crafty mom who loves to create.

As a stay-at-home mom who is also a long-time crafter, this is my way to introduce new designs ad products, and a way for me to better reach out to customers and those looking for unique knitted, crocheted, or sewn items for themselves or their friends and family.

I struggle to create in warm months. A pile of yarn sitting on your lap when it's 85 degrees, is hot and my hands sweat, making the hook and needles slippery. But it's in the 60s, now, with fall officially arriving in the Midwest, so crocheting resumes .

Finished this Staghorn Cable hat this morning. I found it, half-done when looking for a skein of yarn, so figured it was the season to finish it. Hoping it softens up when I wash it, because it's pretty stiff right now.
