I am Victoria, the fiber artist behind Once Upon a Hook Crochet.

I am 31 years old, and have been married to my amazing husband for 11 years.

I am currently a stay-at-home mom to our 5 kids. You may notice them on my instagram feed from time to time - they believe themselves to be my biggest fans.

I am self-taught crocheter, picking up my first hook after getting a super cute pair of crochet monster pants from my friend Carrie! I began finding more and more things I just couldn’t live without and knew that while I could probably keep her in business for years to come, it seemed like a good time to give it a go myself. And to say she was supportive was an understatement. She helped me set up my ravelry account and everything!

There really was no turning back at that point as I had caught the crochet bug! I began my pattern writing journey a little over a year later, and I am so glad to have taken the plunge.

I was born and raised in the heart of Michigan (seriously… I grew up about 30 minutes away from our capitol); and upon graduating high-school I enlisted in the United States Marine Corps as a Combat Videographer. While enlisted I was able to cross train with our photographers and graphic artists to learn a large variety of skills that I now use when pattern writing!

I can’t wait to continue sharing my crochet journey with you all and can’t thank you all enough for you wonderful support. Every like, comment, and share brings me a spark of joy!

Happy Hooking!
Victoria
