I found my people!

This Skool community is truly a sanctuary. Melissa is so sweet and after being in the community only a few days I already feel like she’s a good friend. I want to make tea and stitch with her in real life, every day!

BEFORE:

Thinking about getting back into crochet after a long break

AFTER:

So excited to get started so I can share my projects with people who I know are genuinely interested.

Wonderful community full of learning

I love that every level of learning is welcome. The monthly crochet alongs are so much fun to see take shape. I have really enjoyed learning new stitches, and love being able to share my projects. The community and support make me feel like anything and everything is possible.

Oh, my heart! 💖 Thank you so much for these kind words. Knowing that the Nook makes you feel like 'anything and everything is possible' is exactly why I started this community. That 'brain buzz' can be loud, but when we have a hook in our hands and a community cheering us on, it really does change the game! I am so glad you’re enjoying the monthly CALs—watching everyone’s unique spin on the same project is one of my favorite parts, too. Thank you for being such a wonderful part of our sanctuary and for sharing your beautiful projects with us. Keep those stitches flowing!

Amazing for newbies and experienced hook-ees

This was one of the first groups I joined on Skool a couple Of weeks ago. Always welcoming. Great lessons. And the people there are super friendly and helpful. Just a joyous place to be.

I am so incredibly happy that the Nook was one of your first stops on Skool. 'Just a joyous place to be'—honestly, that might be the best compliment ever! I’m so glad you’re finding the lessons helpful and that the community has welcomed you with open arms. Our members really are the secret sauce that makes this sanctuary so special and friendly. Thank you for taking a moment to share the love. I’m so excited to see your projects and watch your journey with us grow. Happy stitching!

Friendly, Supportive, Judgement Free

Friendly, Supportive, Judgement Free, I love that there's always a new idea/WIP/or someone's finished projects. The community is awesome, I'd definitely recommend this to a friend.

BEFORE:

I'm a retired homebody looking to make new friends who are Christian-based and enjoy crocheting.

AFTER:

That it's ok to be me, to make mistakes, but always to remember that in the mess of it all, I can rise again and start all over.

I am sitting here with the biggest smile reading this. Thank you so much for sharing your 'Before and After.' 🥹 The fact that you’ve found a space where it’s okay to be yourself and make mistakes just makes my heart swell. That realization—that we can always rise again and start fresh, even in the middle of a 'messy' project or a messy week—is the exact spirit of this sanctuary. I’m so honored that you chose us to be your community. Having your friendly, supportive presence and seeing your projects pop up in the feed truly makes the Nook a better place for everyone. Thank you for the recommendation and for being such a light in our group!
