My Mission:
I’m Violet—a nerdy fiber artist and keychain pattern designer. I started How Violet on Youtube in 2010 with the goal of providing colorful, cute, and beginner friendly craftlace tutorials. You might know these as gimp, boondoggle, scoubidou, or lanyards—but whatever you call them, I’m here to show you how to make awesome keychains for yourself & your friends. When people see my creations, I hope that they can feel connected to the best parts about their childhood.
If you enjoy the calm and whimsical process of weaving then you are in the right place! Here you can find patterns, join competitions, and be inspired by the community!
