Caitlin 💚 Fiber Artist
Handmade Crochet Plushies 🧶
Market Vendor
Machesney Park, Illinois📍
Find me at local Markets Hi, I’m Caitlin.

I live in Illinois with my husband, our dog, and our three kitties. I’ve been crocheting since I was a kid, but in early 2023 I discovered amigurumi (crochet plushies) and completely fell in love. What started as a creative outlet has grown into my full-time dream job. I’m incredibly grateful that I get to spend my days creating handmade plushies and sharing the joy, comfort, and smiles they bring to others. By supporting my small business, you’re helping me continue to crochet full time, create with intention, and share handmade happiness—one stitch at a time. Every plushie is made with care, love, and gratitude 💖

Emotional Support Nuggets are one of my favorite things to make! 🥹

I got the idea from The Crochet Carpenter
and they've been such a fun addition to my market booth.

They always make people smile and get a good laugh!

They're the perfect little desk buddy, or thoughtful gift for someone who could use a little extra encouragement. 💕

I get asked ALL the time where I get these 3-tier black shelves for my market booth, I added them to my Amazon storefront! ✨

These shelves are seriously a game changer for market vendors. They are the perfect size for displaying plushies!

My favorite part? They come apart! 🙌 That means they stack up easily and fit so much better in your car. And if you’re a market vendor, you already know! saving space in the car is EVERYTHING!!

I linked them in my Amazon storefront under my market booth supplies! ❤️
