Hook, yarn, crochet……repeat!

Hi, my name is Trish and I love to make things, mainly in crochet, by knitting and sewing….I have been making things for as long as I can remember, one of my first memories was taking my Toy Maker badge at Brownies……I knitted a white rabbit and sewed a baby’s felt ball with a bell inside. I used to work in a shop selling furniture and, noticing that some of the sofa fabric samples were linen, waited until the colours were discontinued and used a sample to make a bag ( which I still have today!) people saw it, liked it and asked me to make them one and so began my first foray into selling online…..a long time ago now! Back then it was all about sewing, but in recent years my passion has turned to crochet…..I taught myself to crochet when I was about 11, that first piece was meant to be a square but turned out to be a triangle!

The Red House has been started to help fund my addiction to yarn and making things.

The name The Red House has no story behind it …..I simply live in a red brick house and I liked the comfy cosy sound of it, given I make a lot of blankets and scarves….it is also where I am passing on my skills to my granddaughters…I hope you find something you like, and if you want to commission me to make you something please do get in touch….thank you for checking my shop out.
