About Me
Hey, thank you for having a nosey at my website. My name is Bethan, the face behind Mrs McGregor’s Hook.
I live in Swansea with my husband James AKA Mr McGregor (though not the arch-nemesis of Peter Rabbit) and my springer spaniel Cookie. When I was a little girl my Mamgu used to crochet and I remember the house being filled with her wonderful creations. Growing up, my Mum was also a dab hand at fibre crafts including sewing, knitting and crocheting. Therefore it was no surprise that when I picked up a hook in 2018 after visiting the knit and natter group at Townhill Library, I never really put it down again.
Since those early days I’ve spent endless hours practising and challenging myself to make things I never dreamed I could. Even getting commissioned to make items for Michael Sheen, Rachel Riley and HRH King Charles
Now I am on a mission to spread the crochet love far and wide through my workshops! Whether you’re a seasoned pro or just picking up a hook for the first time there will be a session that is perfect for you.

Reviews
She provided all the materials you need including yarn, crochet hook, stuffing and an illustrated pattern to follow. During the two hour workshop she demonstrated how to do each part of the pattern, and then went round the class giving advice and helping people get the hang of it. She was supportive, encouraging and took her time with everyone.
During the workshop we all reached different stages of completing our pumpkins, and Bethan sent us home with all the materials we'd need to finish plus access to a video tutorial to make sure we understood how to do the rest of the pattern. I just need to finish stuffing my pumpkin and add a little stalk, and I'm delighted at how it has turned out.
Highly recommend for a fun activity suitable for complete beginners or those with some limited crochet skills already under their belt.
