Happy Hookers Detroit started off as a fun way to teach my friends how to crochet. Now, a decade later it has become my life line. I knew very early on I wanted to work with yarn and make original clothing, but to hand crochet and knit takes so long I never thought I could make a living doing it. Then I found vintage home knitting machines! The brand of knitting machine I use has not be manufactured since the 1990's and they are very hard to come by. The last one I bought out of a barn in Peru, Indiana! These knitting machines are still very difficult to operate and the learning curve has been steep. I have barely scratched the surface of possibilities and I am looking forward to writing new patterns and to see what I come up with next! It takes a massive amount of trial and error to turn and idea into a pattern, but everything on this website is 100% original and written by me. I do not steal other people's ideas or patterns. Every single item you see I made from imagination. The whole process from balling yarn to sewing I do personally. With your purchasing support, I hope to one day have a workshop where people can learn and create their own products all under the HHD Clothing label. To pay someone to help me and learn this craft would make me one Happy Hooker! The ultimate goal is to bring textile manufacturing back to Detroit one Hooker at a time! Thank you for helping my dreams come true!
