Your teacher - Shelley Husband

Shelley Husband is a designer, author, and serious supporter of making crocheting easy and enjoyable. While Shelley learned crocheting as a child, it took her almost 40 years to crochet her next granny square — and she hasn’t stopped since.
Soon after that square, Shelley realised she had a new design in mind, and then another, and… well, let’s just say, there’s no slowing the new designs that continue to have her granny square community buzzing.
From her first book, Granny Square Flair, winning UK’s Best Crochet Book in 2019, to a total tally of 12 books, Shelley enjoys giving her community what they want. Now with an App, online group, and regular workshops across the country, Shelley loves getting the curious hooked on granny squares!
Old and new crocheters fall in love with the way Shelley designs patterns to be practical to grow their crochet confidence, one square at a time.
When Shelley’s not running a retreat, working a workshop, or designing the next book from her hook, she’s enjoying the land she loves and lives on of the Dja Dja Wurrung and the Taungurung Peoples of the Kulin Nation. (also known as Bendigo in Victoria, Australia)
If you haven’t joined her community already, and you are crochet curious, you’re most welcome to look her up on the socials @spincushions
