About
A Katy and her Squid
KT and the Squid was born in November of 2009. I started my Etsy shop selling finished crochet hats. In November 2012 I discovered I LOVE designing and haven't looked back.
My specialty is women's garments. My goal is to design flattering clothing that;s simple enough for the novice crocheter.
The name KT and the Squid came by accident. When my first daughter was born my husband nicknamed her Squid. Imagine a newborn baby...You get it. When I named my business in 2009 it was just me and the Squid at home so I found it fitting. I figured I'd change it later but it stuck. As time went on I realized it was perfect.
