Jan from The Crafty Therapist

I'm an Crochet Designer and Natural Therapist striving to tread more gently on Mama Earth. I live in the beautiful Scottish Highlands, with my husband and three boys, along with our big fluffy cat. We aim to be as plastic free as possible and reuse whatever we can. I mainly work with natural, recycled sustainable yarns where-ever possible. Through sharing my experiences, on my blog and social media, of using greener yarns and products and designing crochet patterns using these yarns, I hope to help encourage and support sustainable creativity. You can find my crochet patterns on my blog, Ravelry, Etsy and LoveCrafts.
