About Us
Hello, I'm Meredith — and I'm so glad you're here. ☀️
Welcome to Ray of Sunshine Crochet, a small handmade shop born from a deep love of crocheting, creativity, and the belief that a handcrafted gift can carry warmth that no mass-produced item ever could.
Every blanket, scarf, hat, and accessory you find in this shop was made by my own two hands — with care, intention, and a whole lot of heart.
How It All Started
I needed a new hobby that I would be able to stick with and I found crocheting during the summer between my freshman and sophomore year of high school. I needed a way to slow down and create something tangible in a fast-paced world. What started as a hobby and stress reliever quickly became a passion — and then a calling. There's something almost magical about transforming a simple skein of yarn into something that keeps someone warm, makes them smile, or wraps them in comfort during a hard season.
Ray of Sunshine Crochet grew out of that magic. I wanted to share it with others and to bring a little handmade warmth into homes across the country.
The Handmade Difference
Every piece I create is made with quality yarns chosen for their softness, durability, and beauty. I take my time with each stitch, no rushing, no shortcuts. Whether it's a cozy blanket for a new baby or a custom order for a gift, you can trust that it was made with the same care I'd put into something for my own family.
Because I make everything myself, each item is truly one of a kind. Small variations are part of the charm and they're the fingerprint of something genuinely handmade.
The Angel Blanket Donation Program 🧶
Giving back is woven into the heart of this shop. Through the Angel Blanket Yarn Fund, a portion of every purchase helps fund yarn donations so that handmade blankets can reach those who need them most — families in hospitals, shelters, and care facilities who could use a little extra warmth and comfort.
When you shop here, you're not just getting something beautiful for yourself or someone you love — you're helping spread that ray of sunshine a little further.
Custom & Special Orders
Have something specific in mind? I love bringing custom ideas to life. Whether you're looking for a particular color palette, a personalized size, or a one-of-a-kind gift, I'd love to work with you. Learn more about custom orders here.
Thank You for Supporting Handmade
Shopping small and handmade means the world to makers like me. Every order is a vote for slow, intentional craft — and I don't take that lightly. I pack every order with gratitude and hope it brings a little sunshine into your day.
With warmth,
Meredith
