What Customers Are Saying
“Ashlee Brotzell’s instructions are easy to follow. She’s always available to all working on her creations. I highly recommend her. I especially like this Facebook group because I can see several examples of Ashlee’s patterns as they are worked on by other group members. She even gives sneak peeks of what new creations she’s working.“

“I love the photo tutorial she offers you give a try with this method before you dive into more advance or larger patterns or you may be lost. Wished I known about this tutorial 5 years ago when I first discovered this type of crochet. This method is beautiful.“
