Why We Created Crochet Surprise...
Can you relate to this?
Life gets so busy & you never make time for yourself.
There's work, paying bills, making errands, preparing meals, cleaning, seeing friends, family, exercising, pets, commuting, emails & the list never stops.
And if you have little kids or have had kids, you know exactly what it's like to constantly run after them, make sure that they're ok, safe, fed & bathed.
Since my precious child was born, I found I didn't have the time to crochet as much as I would have loved to.
Crocheting has always been a part of my life since I was a little girl.
My grandmother taught my mother, who then taught me how to crochet.
It's been passed down the generations in my family & I've always loved making new projects every month.
That's why my husband Doug & I started Crochet Surprise.
We want to treat you to YOU time.
A time where you can have your own personal retreat from the busyness of life.
Myself (Sarah), Doug & our precious child
We spend countless hours each month to personally hand pick & select the crochet project
I know as crocheters we often have certain types of projects that we're comfortable with.
You may feel the most comfortable making a scarf, a pair of gloves or it could even be a hat.
Here at Crochet Surprise, we want to surprise you & give you a project that you may never have thought about or tried before.
A project that you would absolutely love.
That's why it takes time, countless hours in fact, just working on the concept for the month.
Here's what's involved:
Finding a designer that has done our concept or paying for one to create it for us.
Then making sure the pattern makes sense for a person reading it.
The only way to do that is to actually make it ourselves.
Then & only then if we're happy with it, we will include it in our box for that month by getting it beautifully designed, written up & printed out.
We would never include a pattern if it wasn't something we would be personally excited to make!
Take a look at some of our past projects below.
You're not alone in making the monthly project. We provide step by step video tutorials.
As crocheters, we come with all sorts of different skill levels.
Some of us are beginners, some of us are more advanced & some of us have been crocheting since we were kids.
Here at Crochet Surprise, we want to help you make the monthly project by giving you access to step by step video tutorials.
Connect with other crocheters all around the world in our members only Facebook group
A major reason why we also started Crochet Surprise is to connect people who join our community with other crocheters from all around the world.
Meet others who also love to crochet & what better way to share with them than working on the same crochet project each month!

This is for our valued customers only so we can make sure it's a safe place for everyone to share & receive.
This is also where:

We love giving back to charities
At Crochet Surprise our heart is to give back to the community & we love paying it forward.
We thought of different ways on how our community could give back as a group to charity.
That's when we came up with the idea to collectively use our skills as crocheters to make a project that we could donate to others who could really use them.
So for one of our projects we firstly asked our Crochet Surprise community if there were any charities close to their heart.
Based on the responses received, we chose to support Remember Betty (www.rememberbetty. com) and Knots of Love (www.knotsoflove.org).
Each of these charities support & journey with individuals diagnosed with cancer.
Then all of our members made hats & sent them off to the above charities using a prepaid envelope provided by us.
We're planning to do this every year.
Common questions we get asked
How does Crochet Surprise work?
Crochet Surprise is a monthly recurring subscription box, similar to a magazine subscription.
Each month, a Crochet Surprise box will be delivered to your doorstep.
The box will contain a crochet pattern, yarn & all other materials* required to complete the monthly crochet project.
It will also contain a select 2oz bag of premium loose leaf tea. Subscriptions can be purchased on a monthly or annual plan.
There is also the option to purchase Crochet Surprise as a gift for someone.
Gifts can be bought in increments of 1, 3, 6 or 12 months & are charged as one off payments & will not become a recurring payment.
*Crochet hooks are not included.

Where does Crochet Surprise ship?
Crochet Surprise ships internationally. We are based in Portland, Oregon in the United States & all our boxes are sent from this location.
I'm a beginner at crocheting. Will I be able to make the monthly project?
Our projects are aimed at the beginner/intermediate level.
The primary stitches in the patterns we select are single crochet, double crochet, chain, slip stitch etc & if there is a more difficult stitch, it is clearly described.
So if you can read those stitches & do them, then you're all set :)
Do you use wool as I'm allergic to it?
So far, we've only ever used wool once in a project. In fact, we tend to stay away from wool as quite a few of our members are allergic to it.
In the event that we do use it (which would be very rare), we would let you know well in advance & not charge you for that month.
