I'm Jillian, a fiber artist based in Sydney, Nova Scotia. I specialize in crochet and have been working at the craft for about fifteen years or so.

I primarily make and sell custom projects so always feel free to message me with a custom inquiry.

I'm back after a ridiculously long hiatus to let you know I still do in fact make pumpkins!

Can do two different sizes and a variety of colours, depending on what is available from local shops. Hit me up if you want to commission a couple! 🎃

Newborn niece won't have auntie there to hold her after she's born, but she will have one soft blanket to snuggle with instead 🥺.

Free pattern by Daisy Cottage Designs found on Pinterest. Camel stitch border added. Yarn used is Loops and Threads Skinny Chenille in purple stripe 💜. 5.25mm hook used for the blanket, 4mm hook used for the border. 😊

Saw lime green cotton yarn and knew I had to grab it.

"Easy fishnet sleeves/shrug" youtube tutorial by Anna Greene ( 💚) I went with a longer body for more of a crop top look.

Freshly finished "Summer Sweater" ty for the free pattern queen!

I used cotton yarn because I wanted to add a bit of weight to it, and definitely need to work on my mattress stitch seaming but I am excited to wear this 😊

✨️Latest commission✨️

The request from the customer was to replace a tote I made for them that they misplaced. I was able to find the exact pattern from the reference photo they sent. Love when that happens 😌

This Bag is multifunctional but in my opinion works best for a trip to the grocery store, library or a shopping day. Let me know if you want me to whip one up for you! 🥰
