Hi, you guys, welcome! I'm Carrie Penny, the Happy Crafty Homemaker. If you've combed through the interwebs looking for a channel that celebrates knitting, crochet, card making, and general craftiness, you have found your home.
I'll be sharing in-depth reviews of yarn boxes, knitting, and crochet patterns, as well as sharing my current WIPs and FOs. No matter your budget or skill level, there's valuable information here for you.
My cats Pippin and Banner also make an appearance now and then. Yes, we are geeks over here!!!
In my family, homekeeping is an art. So sprinkled in among the yarn love and crafting fun, you may hear a homekeeping tip or two.
Anyhoo. Merino, Alpaca, Angora…oh, my! Let the "yarn squishing" begin!
