Hi, friends! I’m Tommy, the crafty human behind all the cute creations you’ll find at Snips & Stitches headquarters. My crochet journey began back in 2017 and I haven’t been able to put my hook down since. On a typical day you can find me hiding away in my craft nook crocheting for hours on end. Being surrounded by yarn and other colorful objects always leads to a creative state of mind…and trust me, I wouldn’t have it any other way!
