Tanya started her blog Little Things Blogged almost two years ago as she wanted to share her adventures in crocheting and generally crafting. Two years later, she's realized that it's great to have the ability to talk with creative people from all over the world, who are just as passionate about crafting.
Crocheting came into Tanya's life out of nowhere and began with struggling with the first chain stitches of a scarf project. The outcome of her struggle was one scarf and a new addiction that changed her life.
