The Story Behind Rockin’ Threads Creations
How Rockin’ Threads Creations Began (and a Dash of Cheerful Chaos!)
It started with one hook, one skein of yarn, and one big dream — to create flowers that never fade.
Rockin’ Threads Creations began in the middle of my living room (and, if I’m honest, still occasionally takes over it!). I wanted to bring together my love for creativity, colour, and the feeling of giving something truly meaningful.
But really, the story goes back much further than that…
🧶 Where It Truly Began — Learning From My Nan
My nan taught me how to crochet many, many years ago. ( I know it is a familiar story, but it is the truth) I’ve been crocheting on and off for nearly 40 years now (jeez, I’m getting old… LOL). Those early stitches, made with tiny hooks and lots of patience, shaped the crafter I am today.
Crochet became a comfort, a familiar language of loops and love that always found its way back into my life — even during long breaks.
🌍 A New Country, A New Chapter
When I moved to the UK five years ago, I never imagined crochet would become my business.
A friend saw my amigurumi animals and asked me to make her one — and she wanted to pay for it! I was so surprised, but I made it for her… and then more orders came in. Little animals, dolls, cute characters — all crafted from yarn and joy.
I loved making amigurumi, but deep down I wanted to create something truly unique. Something that connected my past, my passions, and my skills.
🌸 From Hobby to Heartfelt Business
I’ve always had a background in the flower world and a lifelong love for blooms. Combine that with the price of fresh flowers here in the UK (so expensive!), and suddenly an idea was blooming:
Everlasting, crocheted flowers — handmade keepsakes that never wilt.
After a lot of research, experimenting, frogging, failing, trying again… I found my groove.
And today?
I have my own business — Rockin’ Threads Creations.
I crochet what I love and serve people who love my flowers just as much.
I’m still learning, still growing, and still grateful I took the leap into something that truly lights me up.
🎶 Why “Rockin’ Threads”?
The name is a little nod to my love of music — and to my alter ego, Miss Mayhem from Rockin50’s Radio! My show is on every Monday from 8pm till 10pm (UK time). Tune in and let me know, I would love to hear from you.
It captures the fun, retro energy that inspires me every single day.
I’m often crafting, creating, and dancing between stitches. 💃🎶
💖 My Mission
To make handmade flowers that tell a story — one that lasts far beyond the bouquet.
Whether it’s a keepsake gift, home décor treasure, wedding bouquet, or personal reminder, each bloom is crafted with care, meaning, and yes… a touch of cheerful chaos.
