About Amelia's Crochet
Hi, I'm Amelia Brooks!
Welcome to Amelia's Crochet! I'm a crochet pattern designer, craft instructor, and lifelong yarn collector based in Savannah, Georgia. My grandmother taught me my very first shell-stitch border with warm terracotta cotton yarn on her sunlit porch in Savannah when I was ten — and crochet has been my daily joy ever since.
Over the years, I realized how many beginners give up on crocheting simply because traditional patterns feel cryptic or skip the tricky steps. I started AmeliasCrochet.com to change that: every single pattern and stitch tutorial here is tested from start to finish, written in plain English (standard US terms), and paired with crisp, well-lit step-by-step photos.
When I'm not sketching granny square color palettes or testing amigurumi plushies in my sunlit studio, you'll find me sipping sweet peach iced tea under Savannah oaks, hunting for vintage wooden hooks at antique markets, or winding warm cinnamon and cream cotton skeins.
