About

Howdy!  If you're wondering what this blog is about, I'll give you the short version - I post free knitting and crochet patterns I designed myself!  (If you're looking for paper-craft projects, I have those too - check out my Tumblr.)  If you already figured out what this blog was for and now want to know who I am, read on...

My name is Rachel Newhouse, an author, creative, and full-time student from Kansas City, MO, working to put myself through college. All proceeds from pattern sales go towards education expenses. To follow along on my journey, check out my main blog.

Come find me over here!

I'd love to hear from you!  Contact me:
