Meet the monster who started it all

Quill the Friendly Monster

Quill was Barb’s very first original amigurumi pattern—the cheerful one-eyed character who opened the door to a whole new world of designing for Totally Hooked.

Then six generous crocheters picked up their hooks, worked through those first written rounds and gave Quill a personality all their own. Their colours, stitches, questions and feedback became part of this very first design story.

“Every Totally Hooked pattern that followed began with this little purple monster—and the testers who believed in him.”
