"Every great dream begins with a dreamer. Always remember, you have within you the strength, the patience, and the passion to reach for the stars to change the world." - Harriet Tubman
Hi, my name is Erin, and welcome to Scruffy Makers! My husband and I started Scruffy Makers as a way to express our creativity and passion for making handmade items. A little back story, I am a full-time NICU nurse in Knoxville, TN and my husband (Aaron…yes we have the same name) works in technology and education.
My grandmother is the reason this business exists. At the young age of 8 years old, she began teaching me how to crochet. After 30+ years of practice, I figure, “what the heck, let’s go for it!”.
All of our items are handmade, crafted, packaged, and shipped by us from Knoxville…also known as The Scruffy City.
