Welcome to Underground Crafter!
My name is Marie Segares, and I’m the Proprietress of Underground Crafter. I’m a crochet and knitting blogger, designer, podcaster, and teacher. I learned to crochet from my maternal grandmother in 1984, and I’ve been hooked ever since. I conquered my fear of knitting in 2010, and now I’m happily bi-craftual. You can read more about me here and stay in touch by signing up for my newsletter here.
You can find crochet patterns, crochet tips, crochet and knitting book and product reviews, knitting patterns, sewing patterns, Cricut and other crafty tutorials, recipes, and more on my blog!
