I mainly create the crochet toys for my two kids and to add to my own collection. I find happiness and peace making them.<\/p>\n
My interest in crochet started when I came across the call out for the 62,000 poppies for the centenary of the First World War. I learnt how to crochet the red poppies and managed to contribute a handful.<\/p>\n

In early 2020, I had the opportunity to use my crochet skills to support the wildlife rescue fundraisers that are helping the Australian wildlife affected by the bushfires.<\/p>\n
I pledged to make some crochet toy kangaroos and koalas to be sold by a wildlife sanctuary.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Through social media and friends, the kangaroos and koalas that I made got exchanged for donations made directly to the fundraiser very quickly that I did not have to post the toys to the sanctuary for them to sell. This inspired me to continue making toys and use my skills to support more fundraisers in the future.<\/p>\n
