Hooked By Hanna

I'm so excited to kick off our Work at Home Mother's month with Hooked by Hanna. Hanna is a local WAHM that I met when I was looking for a custom made Halloween outfit for my daughter. I had a wacky idea in my head and had seen Hanna's creative work on her Facebook page so I asked her for a Lobster hat and she nailed it! We loved her outfit and the quality of the hat was so stellar that we've been wearing it still on these blustery days.

Hanna started crocheting as a mother of two boys a few years ago. She received a crochet hook and some simple patterns as a gift. Now she is a mother of three and going strong! Hanna had this to say when asked what made her business come out of that one gift:

"As the busy mom of a six-month-old and a three-year-old and as a somewhat uncrafty woman, I didn't pick up that hook until nearly a year later. Once I did, I couldn't put it down! Crochet became a creative outlet, a form of meditation, and a stress reliever. Over the next year my house was overrun with crocheted toys and hats for my boys. My Pinterest boards were overrun by patterns I wanted to try. I began giving crocheted gifts and started getting some special requests. In August of 2012, I decided to officially launch my business "Hooked by Hanna" and have enjoyed the challenge of keeping up with special orders."

Hooked by Hanna's Facebook page has an album of items already created and are for sale, as well as pictures of special orders from the past. Pinterest has been a helpful tool for Hanna and her customers in that it provides inspiration. Here's a good board to look at for exaples of what can be ordered: http://pinterest.com/hannadm/crochet-for-baby/
