Kay Buckley
Crocheter
Kay Buckley has been crocheting for nearly 50 years, she
learnt to Crochet as a little girl and over the years she
has lost her ‘Crojo’ a few times, but 4 years ago she really
fell back in love with it and have not stopped crocheting
since.
Like a lot of people she would crochet things and give
them as gifts to family and friends and then found she
was crocheting more and more so decided to start
selling at craft fairs and markets. Enjoying the interaction with the public, fellow crafters and
talking about crocheting and being amazed that people not only liked her work but bought her
creations.
Kay joined Craft in Action three years ago
and has said that she is in ore at the quality
of items all the crafters make and the love
and passion they have for what they do.
Everything she makes is made with quality
yarn which is sourced at a good price,
which makes all that she sells affordable.
The knack, she says, is to enjoy making the
things she sells and has with a wide range
of things from hats, scarf’s, ponchos, shawls and household cushions and baskets.
Kay is very much a one woman crafter but feels she could not do the rest without the support
of her husband Matthew and son Jacob who not only put up with being surrounded by balls of
yarn but are her ‘market roadies and technical team’.
