Hello, I’m Janferie (Jan) MacKintosh and my business name is The Crafty Therapist. I’m a Scottish eco friendly crochet designer and Reflexologist/Massage Therapist with a love of recycled materials and fibres that keep their looks for longer. I love slow fashion, colour and sustainable natural living with as little plastic as possible.

I design cute, cosy, fun patterns mainly with eco-friendly and recycled yarns, to help you crochet more sustainably too. You can usually use your normal fav yarn if you prefer though, that’s no problem as yarn weight is always shown for the pattern.

I’m also Mum to three crazy boys and a super fluffy black cat (another boy!).

I offer EXCLUSIVE discounts for my email subscribers. If you would like to join. Please click here to join it.
