Beets & Stitches Handmade crochet plushies, blankets, bags, home décor & reusable cotton essentials designed to bring warmth & a little whimsy to everyday life. The name?

Cozy handmade goods crafted with quality yarn, cottagecore charm & heart. Every stitch tells a story. Hi, I’m Kate — the hands and heart behind Beets & Stitches. It comes from a sweet little nickname my husband gave me years ago: “Beets.” I don’t love beets (I don’t hate them either), but I absolutely love what the name represents — it’s warm, playful and full of love. Just like everything I make. I taught myself to crochet during the quiet days of the pandemic, armed with YouTube tutorials, lots of patience and a stubborn left-handed streak. I’d always wanted to learn, especially after watching my grandma crochet growing up, but it finally clicked (with a few lefty-specific video searches). Once I got started, I couldn’t stop — I began making gifts, home goods and cozy little creations just for the joy of it. Eventually, the yarn stash started growing (as they do), and I realized I needed a way to support my hobby and share these pieces with others who love handmade things as much as I do. That’s how Beets & Stitches came to life. My slogan — Every Stitch Tells a Story — is inspired by my other lifelong love: reading. I’m an avid reader, and many of the colors and patterns I choose are drawn from the books I’ve recently read or the worlds I’ve imagined while turning pages. Each piece is made with intention, curiosity & a whole lot of heart. Thanks for visiting my little corner of cozy — I’m so glad you’re here. 💕

Nobody sees the three failed attempts before the one that actually works. 🐸 That's crochet, though...a lot of going back and redoing it before the finished piece comes to life. But, it makes it even more worth it in the end. https://buff.ly/Atq148B

Some of my favorite pieces never make it to the shop because they're already claimed as gifts. There's nothing like handing someone something made just for them.

It took me almost five years to finally get the hang of C2C crochet, and now I can't figure out what took me so long. Turns out I was overthinking it the whole time... now I'm out here feeling like a certified C2C pro, one square at a time.

Stay tuned for the big reveal once she's off the hook.

She's been living on my hook every evening this week and I am obsessed. Meet Daisy Glitterbomb, my newest unicorn and possibly my favorite thing I've ever made. Swipe through the whole glow-up... fair warning, I already don't want to let her go. 🦄✨
