About
Hi there! Thanks for stopping by! Hopefully you can tell by looking around that I like to make things. I learned how to crochet a little over 3 years ago, but dropped it as soon as my first child was born. I now have two little ones, ages 2 and 3 who provide endless joy and inspiration to my day. As they’ve gotten older, I’ve been able to pick up my crafting a bit and have learned to sew and knit. I hope to share my makings and offer any tips that I come across along the way. Please feel free to comment on posts. I know very few crafty-folks in my “real” life and would love to get to know you!
And…in case you were wondering…
Here’s the nursery rhyme from which my blog name was derived:
Hickety Pickety
hickety, pickety, my black hen,
she lays eggs for gentlemen
gentlemen come every day
to see what my black hen doth lay
sometimes 9 and sometimes 10
hickety, pickety, my black hen
I’ve also seen it written as “my fat hen.” Either way, I like the imagery and how it ties into both blogging and making.
See ya soon!
