Where Handmade Gets Huggable

In a story that threads together nearly half a century of craft, creativity, and heart, crochet artist Vickie Foster stands as the hands and spirit behind Crochet Made. Her journey began almost 43 years ago when she picked up a crochet hook for the first time to prepare for her first child. The result: a soft chenille baby blanket in light pink and green that marked the beginning of something lasting.

After making a second blanket for a nephew and another for her youngest son nearly 35 years ago, the yarn and hooks were set aside—until inspiration struck again in June of 2015. As a niece prepared to welcome her first baby, Foster felt a familiar pull and picked up her crochet hook once more. What began as simple baby beanies quickly blossomed into a flourishing passion.

Self-taught and guided by what she believes are God-given talents, Foster discovered new skills with each project. Her creativity has since expanded into countless handcrafted pieces, each one infused with joy and genuine care. Customers often send her photos of items they dream of having made, and she consistently rises to the challenge, turning those ideas into reality.

Today, Crochet Made is more than a shop; it is an expression of devotion, rediscovered passion, and one woman’s delight in creating something meaningful. Foster’s excitement for her craft is unmistakable, and her greatest joy is seeing customers light up when they receive something she created just for them. Her message is simple and sincere: enjoy the shop, and if there’s something special you want crocheted, she would be honored to make it for you.
