Hi creatives, welcome to my happy place! I am Shehnaaz, the blogger, designer, and dreamer behind the Crochet Dreamz blog.  I live in scenic Wisconsin with my husband and daughter.
I get bored on the days I don’t crochet and for me, the line between work and hobby has literally disappeared. I have been fortunate enough to be featured on Simply Crochet, Inside Crochet, and I Like Crochet Magazines. 
 
 
Most of the time you can find me with a hook and a skein of yarn, or on the laptop editing my blog. In my spare time, I love to spend time with my daughter and listen to her endless chatter. I also enjoy reading articles on blogging, social media marketing, and healthy living.
 
 

Some heart touching testimonials I have received

Your work is very inspiring and encourages me to reach out & fulfill my own “crochet dreams”-if I may say so with pure gratitude! Please continue to inspire those who are privileged to meet you through your “gift”-the Love you put into it is definitely felt! I cannot wait to purchase my favorite patterns from your collection-I am truly excited about it!

I don’t like to use my card on the computer, but If your patterns were all in one place that I could have in a book, it would never be put down.

My Crochet Story

 

Due to the nature of my husband’s job, I have lived the life of a nomad. As I moved between countries and cities, I always missed my family and lost all the friends I made. So the idea to start a crochet blog was a godsend. It was something that I could take with me anywhere.  Moving to a new place came with its own challenges, so I loved the idea of having something stable in my life.

I am someone who has always enjoyed crafting. I have dabbled in sewing, knitting, painting, and—last but not the least—crocheting. I first learned how to crochet in high school but let it go by the wayside for many years. When I took it up again in my 30’s, I posted some of my creations on a social media site and got rave reviews. That inspired me to start this blog and there was no looking back.

I feel incredibly blessed to wake up to a job that feels like a hobby. The encouragement I receive from my blog readers and Facebook followers keeps me motivated. Thank you, everyone, I wouldn’t have come this far without you. Love and Peace to you all!
