Crochet
more than a craft—it is a piece of living history, passed from one set of hands to another.
With nothing more than a hook, a strand of yarn, and a little patience, something beautiful begins to take shape. Every stitch carries a little of the person who made it, creating blankets, gifts, keepsakes, and treasures that can be loved for years and passed on to the next generation. Crochet reminds us that the things we make with our hands can become part of the stories we leave behind.

Learning the Basics
Learning the basics of crochet is the beginning of a skill you can carry with you for a lifetime.
Start with the simple stitches and techniques that generations of crocheters have used to turn a strand of yarn into something beautiful and useful. With each stitch, you’ll build confidence, discover the joy of creating with your hands, and learn a timeless craft worth passing on.

OvertonFancies
About a decade before I started Wisdom Preserved I began writing and selling crochet patterns on Etsy.com as OvertonFancies. This was a wonderful endeavor that doesn't get as much of my attention as it used to but my patterns are still available if you are interested in purchasing them. I will provide links and photos below or you can go right to my Etsy shop.
