What fuels the passion to create for a lady who proclaims herself a professional hooker? Some understanding comes when you read from the about page in the Crowe Shea Fashions shop.
"Growing up I was blessed with family members who enjoyed teaching me their favorite handicrafts - at least that's how I remember it. The reality may have been that I annoyed the crap out of them until they showed me how to do what they were doing.
Whatever version of history you choose to accept, the fact is thanks to cheap mass production, most of them have gone the way of the dinosaur. However I still cling tightly to my favorite: crochet. It may be fuddy duddy and equated with doilies, but ever since my mom taught me my first stitches I have been, well, hooked. I love the ability to create something beautiful with just some yarn and a hook. The meditative repetition of stitch after stitch is soothing. And I can't deny that I absolutely enjoy hearing those words, "Wow! That's crochet?" These things fuel my desire to create fun and unexpected items that will be enjoyed by others as much as I enjoyed making them."
By the way the bears are not included but make great models, don't you think?
Every thing in the shop, the hats, the scarves, the stuffed animals, the grocery bag holders, is hooked up to be loved a long time.
