About

Bones

Hey, I’m Jonny—the hands and heart behind BonesCrochets.

Bones started during a low point in my life. After dropping out of college and spending four years in a draining remote job, I felt completely lost. I had no hobbies, no passion, and no real sense of direction.

Crocheting didn’t come to me in some magical moment—I just needed a distraction. I picked up a hook, started watching YouTube tutorials, and kept teaching myself, stitch by stitch. What began as a way to cope quickly turned into a creative outlet that brought life back into me.

At first, I struggled with imposter syndrome and was afraid to share my work. But the more I posted, the more support I received—from friends and total strangers alike. That encouragement helped me believe in myself and take the leap to turn this into something real.

BonesCrochets is more than just handmade pieces—it’s about resilience, growth, and owning your journey, no matter how imperfect. I hope it inspires you to create boldly and live fully, just like it’s inspired me.

Thanks for being here. I can’t wait to keep growing together.

With love,
Jonny
