What is Crafty Bones?

Well technically I guess you could say I am Crafty Bones.

Why did I name my company this?

• I wanted to include the word Crafty in my business name in one way or anther
• I wanted to see if I could use my only nickname I have ever had which is Bones

Why did I want to have Crafty in the business name?

I chose “Crafty” for my business name to highlight the creativity, innovation, and joy of hands-on making. It reflects how I view crochet as an art form that requires imagination and skill.

Why did I want to have Bones in my business name?

Growing up my grandfather, we called him Papa, would call me Leanna Bones. This ended up being really the only nickname I have ever really had, and from what I remember he is the only one who would call me Bones. When I think of myself as Bones it brings a smile to my face and the joy I want to bring to all my work. So to me it was so fitting to have it as part of my business name.

About Me: A Little More Insight!

Hi there! I’m Leanna, and I’m excited to share a bit more about myself with you.

I’m a wife to my incredibly supportive husband, Brendan, and together we’re raising three wonderful boys in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.

Before diving into the world of fiber arts, I was a Red Seal hairstylist. Since 2015, when our oldest son was born, I’ve embraced the role of a work-at-home mom. My journey into crocheting began as a way to create cute items for myself and my kids. Both my family and my husband’s have long been involved in fiber arts, so it’s something that’s been a part of my life in one way or another.

As I spent more time crafting, I discovered how much I enjoyed designing patterns and creating beautiful pieces. It’s a perfect way for me to unwind, especially after the kids are asleep. Now, I’m excited to share this passion with you!

Through my blog, I aim to connect with fellow makers by sharing my crochet patterns, DIY tips, and insights into understanding crochet charts. Whether you’re looking to learn how to crochet, master crochet charts, or rekindle your passion for fiber arts, I’m here to help and inspire.

I hope you’ll join me on this journey and find joy in creating with yarn and other fibers!
