Welcome back to our Yarn Series — this is Part Two, and we’re trading in two needles for one powerful little hook.

This week on Handicraft and Stitch, we’re sitting down with official bestie-of-the-podcast Brittany — certified crochet baddie and hook-wielding queen — to chat all things crochet. From how she got started to why crochet hits different, we’re breaking down what makes this craft so addictive, expressive, and deeply rooted in community.

We talk granny squares, garments, thrifted yarn finds, and the quiet rebellion of making something beautiful with your own two hands. Crochet has always been about resourcefulness, resilience, and radical creativity — and Brittany brings that energy in full color.

Whether you’re brand new to yarn or you’ve got three WIPs living in tote bags around your house, this episode will make you want to grab a hook and stitch your way into the lineage of makers who built warmth, art, and power from a single strand.

Part Two. One hook. Let’s get into it.
