Crochet Lessons, Workshops & Creative Business Mentoring.
From first stitches to flourishing businesses, I'm here to help you move forward with confidence.
Whether you're picking up a crochet hook for the very first time, looking to build your confidence with amigurumi, dreaming of turning your craft hobby into a successful side hustle, navigating the world of UKCA soft toy compliance, or exploring ways we could work together, you've come to the right place.
At Made in the Button Room, every session is tailored to you. I offer relaxed, personalised online support designed to help you learn new skills, solve problems, build confidence and move your ideas forward.
With over 15 years of crochet experience and five years of running my own successful creative business, I combine real-world experience with practical guidance to help you achieve your goals in a welcoming, judgement-free environment.
What I offer
Crochet lessons are just one part of what I offer.
Alongside one-to-one tuition, I also work with creative businesses, yarn shops, community groups and fellow makers who are looking for specialist guidance, mentoring or opportunities to collaborate.
Whether you're trying to understand UKCA soft toy compliance, hoping to turn your craft hobby into a sustainable business, planning a workshop, discussing wholesale opportunities, or simply want to explore an idea with someone who's been there before, there's a booking designed to help.
If you're not quite sure which service is right for you, start with a free discovery call. We'll chat through your ideas, answer your questions and work out the best next step together.
As well as teaching crochet, I'm an amigurumi pattern designer, creative business owner and one of the volunteer admins for one of Facebooks largest, free online community groups supporting makers with UKCA and CE soft toy compliance.
The experience I've gained designing products, growing a sustainable creative business and supporting thousands of fellow makers means I can offer practical, real-world guidance that's rooted in lived experience, not just theory.
