About Us

- The Yarngrit -

My name is Jenni Desper. I'm a creative wife & mom to 4 amazing kids, a dog mom, and crazy cat lady. I've always tried to live a creative life.

When life surprized me with kidney cancer over 5 years ago, I started crocheting. Once I picked up a hook I couldn't put it down! Then, unexpectedly, I lost my mom to cancer and I made a promise to her that I would keep crocheting... And I haven't stopped!

I love making happy and functional things to sell, as gifts, and donate. Check out #ProjectYarnedWithLove. You can shop on the website, visit the local shops listed on the main page, catch me at local festivals with the family, join us when I crochet with friends, attend a craft class, or on social media.

I hope you enjoy my The Yarngrit creations and be inspired to create. Thank you! - Jenni
