Crocheting accessories in Canada to make a difference around the world.
In May, 2014 I got married and moved from Portland, Oregon to Halifax, Nova Scotia. As I was in the immigration process, waiting on a work permit, I decided to pick up a hobby; thus began my obsession with anything yarn related. My love for crocheting quickly became more like an addiction and I haven't stopped "hooking" since! I bring my hooks and yarn with me anywhere-- the car, the park, on walks. I love sitting at home, with a cup of coffee, and designing something beautiful!
After much encouragement from friends and family, I decided to turn my hobby into something else. Something that would help others. Since 2008 my now-husband and I have taken several different trips around the world and spent our time volunteering where needed. These trips opened our eyes to the vast needs that are all around the world. I'm in the Loop was created for two distinct reasons:
1. To create an awareness of some of the needs both in North America and around the world
2. To send money to aid those in need
I'm in the Loop is a play on words. "The Loop" certainly represents the literal crochet loop. but it also represents global needs. It represents opening our eyes and being 'in the loop' as to what's going on around us.
Our goal at I'm in the Loop is to make custom items just for you and your loved ones that give you a reminder each time you use your cozy accessories, or each time your child hugs his little stuffed animal, that you are helping to make a difference around the world.
All of our items made at I'm in the Loop are either designed by myself or purchased and used with permission from the original designers. We do our very best to ensure you are getting the highest quality at the best price.
Thank you so much for stopping by and visiting I'm in the Loop,
