About

A photo of me a couple of hours after a right mastectomy in 2021. I am a survivor!

Hello  my name is Kris, but my Mother and Aunt’s called me Krissy. It’s so good to see you on my side of the mountain.

You will find free crochet patterns, sewing and crafting tutorials, with a couple of recipes thrown in.

I am a Breast Cancer Survivor! I was diagnosed 3 years ago. I had a right Mastectomy in November of that same year. I look a little rough in that photo. I was 4 hours post op, and I wanted my friends and family to know that I was “OK”. And you know what? I was…my right arm is swollen and you can see the J-drain hanging at the right front (left side in the photo), but I had no fear! I finished crocheting a poncho that I wanted to wear during the Christmas season a few days after my surgery.

While I was recovering from surgery, I started designing chemo caps for myself. Talking with nurses to find out what was best. I wanted to design beautiful chemo caps. Those that can be worn for every day comfort and for street wear. Since then it has been my joy to design unique and pretty chemo caps & street wear hats.

I still design home decor, kitchen items, a variety of hats, baby items and garments. You will find a little bit of everything on my side of the mountain. So grab a cup of coffee and sit and stay awhile.

When I am not sewing and crocheting, I am happily serving my Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.

You can stay in touch with me by liking my Facebook page  “Krissys Over The Mountain Crochet”

You can find me on Etsy and Ravelry too!

I hope my blog is of help to you, and that you enjoy the free crochet patterns and tutorials.

God Bless,
Kris
