About Me: Unraveling the Yarn Tales

Hey, fellow crochet enthusiasts and those of you curious about the craft, I’m Tracey Rosenberger, and I’m thrilled to have you dive into my website, My Crafty Side. This digital refuge emerged from my love affair with crochet—an art that fuels my creativity, weaves connections, and unravels stress. So, pull up a virtual seat, and let me share the crochet journey that stitches my world together.

Who Am I?

I’m not just a crochet addict; I’m the crochet maven behind My Crafty Side. With a passion for sharing crochet joy, I design whimsical patterns, guide fellow addicts through the maze of crochet techniques, and turn newbies into hook-wielding yarn artists. Whether in the clutches of a crochet project or tapping away to create patterns on my keyboard, I’m in my happy place (unless I’m frogging* it. IYKYK).

What Drives Me?

For me, a skein of yarn and a crochet hook are a portable canvas, a way to express personality, and a tool for stress reduction. I’ve been dabbling with crochet since age 6, but about 15 years ago, I fell head over stitches in love. My journey started with hats and mittens for my nieces, but “The Stress Blanket” became a crochet sanctuary during a challenging year in the elementary classroom. Now, free from chalk dust, my mission is to spread the joy and tranquility that crochet brings.
