I'm a wife, preschool teacher, and lover of all things crochet! My husband and I live in rural Missouri with our cat, Colby Jack. We love spending time outside together. 

I started Millie and Monkey as an Etsy Shop as a way to sell finished crochet pieces so I could buy more yarn to make more things! It has grown and evolved into such a more meaningful part of my life. I am constantly thinking of new things to make and ways to share handmade items with those I love! 

Millie and Monkey Shop supports Operation Shower, a nonprofit that provides military families with amazing baby shower experiences. For every blanket purchased from Millie and Monkey, I donate one to Operation Shower so a military family can receive a handmade gift of appreciation. To date, I have donated over 350 blankets to Operation Shower! You can learn more about Operation Shower and their mission here!
