Why we are here
3ChickswithSticks started the way most creative businesses do — with a hobby that wouldn't stay contained to the living room couch.
My mom and I originally opened this shop back in 2013, bonding over yarn, hooks, and way too many half-finished projects. What started as handmade plushies and accessories has grown into something I'm really proud of — a pattern shop designed to help other crafters bring their own creations to life.
These days, I focus on designing beginner-friendly amigurumi and crochet patterns that are clear, detailed, and actually fun to follow. I'm a teacher by day, so writing instructions that make sense to real people — not just experienced crafters — is something I take seriously. If a pattern isn't easy to follow, I'm not happy with it.
Every pattern in this shop has been tested and written with you in mind. My goal is for you to open the PDF, feel confident, and actually finish the project — because a finished crochet is a happy crochet. 🧶
When I'm not crocheting or lesson planning, you can find me at local craft shows in the Aurora/Joliet area, probably with a coffee in hand.
Thanks so much for stopping by — I'm really glad you're here.
