Behind the Hook: Meet Tani

Welcome to the Real Story of TaniJay Crochet

 Welcome to the story of TaniJay Crochet, where creativity isn’t bound by trends—it sets them. This brand is more than crochet; it’s a personal revolution against the mundane, a bold statement against the world of fast fashion. Every stitch is a rebellion, every piece a masterpiece—crafted with intention, passion, and a soul that cannot be ignored.

BEHINDTHEHOOK

Our Founder, Tani: The Heartbeat Behind the Thread

BEHINDTHEHOOK

Meet Tani, the self-taught artist whose hands tell the story of resilience. What began in 2016 with Crochet Closet—a humble, personal escape from a life weighed down by uncertainty—quickly grew into something much bigger. Each thread woven wasn’t just a stitch; it was a declaration that struggle would not define her, but fuel her creative journey.

When life felt like it was falling apart, Tani found freedom in crochet. The initial spark was born from a place of healing, but soon it became clear: this wasn’t just therapy, this was a calling. LavishHooks came next, a phase that marked a deeper commitment to the craft and a more refined vision. And then, TaniJay Crochet was born—the culmination of years of evolution, growth, and artistic rebellion

TaniJay Crochet isn’t just a brand; it’s a movement—a rebellion against conformity, a space where creativity knows no limits. It’s a journey from personal healing to global expression. And now, it’s a call to others—those who are ready to break free from labels, those who crave a fashion that speaks louder than words, and those who dare to be unapologetically themselves.

Crafting for Confidence

At TaniJay Crochet, we believe that clothing is an extension of your identity—your power and your self-expression. We don’t just create garments; we make bold statements that empower you to own your confidence and flaunt your individuality.

We know that traditional sizing often fails to capture the true essence of who you are. That’s why we reject the notion of the “one-size-fits-all” model. While past experiences may have required precise measurements to get the perfect fit, we’ve made it easier for you.

Our pieces are custom-made to fit you and your body in ways that mass-produced clothing never could. Whether you’re confident in your measurements or need guidance, we’re here to make it simple. No more complicated size charts—just an invitation to order a piece that’s created just for you.

Every design is intentional—crafted to make you feel confident, bold, and unstoppable. When you slip into TaniJay Crochet, it’s not just clothing—it’s an experience of seeing and being seen, of embracing who you are in the most daring, unapologetic way. We’re here to break down barriers, to make the process of self-expression easier, and to make sure you stand tall in a piece that was made for you.”

The Craft: Where Art Meets Fashion

At TaniJay Crochet, we create more than fashion—we craft wearable art. Each piece is handmade with care and precision, rejecting mass production in favor of quality over quantity. Every design tells a story with every stitch, blending timeless crochet techniques with modern creativity

Slow fashion isn’t just about taking our time—it’s about making pieces built to last. And our commitment to you doesn’t end when you receive your piece. If your garment ever needs alterations or repairs, we’re here for you. You can always return to us to ensure your piece stays perfectly fitted and continues to represent your individuality.

When you wear TaniJay Crochet, you wear a piece of art, made to make you feel confident, seen, and unapologetically yourself.”

The TJC Woman & Man: Bold. Fearless. Unapologetic.

The TJC customer isn’t just someone who wears our creations—they live them. The TJC woman is a force of nature. She isn’t afraid to speak her truth, to stand tall in a world that constantly tries to define her. She’s bold, unapologetic, and fiercely herself. A creator, a dreamer, a shaker of things—she wears her confidence like a crown, and she dares the world to challenge her.

The TJC man embodies the same spirit. He knows his worth. He’s fearless in his style, unafraid to mix bold colors and stand out in a world that expects conformity. He’s unapologetically himself—daring to be different and proud of it. With TJC, he wears more than fashion; he wears power.

Together, the TJC tribe is a community of boundary-breakers, visionaries, and people who redefine what it means to truly live unapologetically. We are a tribe that doesn’t follow the rules—we create them.

Join the Movement

Now that you know us, it’s time to step into the revolution. TaniJay Crochet isn’t just a brand—it’s a movement, a celebration of individuality, expression, and boldness. This is your invitation to not just wear crochet, but to live it.

Crochet isn’t just for cozy blankets anymore. We’re redefining this old-school art form, making it fresh, high-fashion, and bold. Think vibrant colors, daring patterns, and a modern edge that takes “handmade” straight to haute couture. TJC pieces blend time-honored craftsmanship with fearless style, proving that personal style and high fashion can go hand in hand.

This is your moment to embrace who you truly are, to wear your uniqueness like a crown, and to join a community of like-minded individuals who are rewriting the rules. This isn’t just fashion—it’s a revolution, and it’s waiting for you to step in.

TJC Crochet Measurement Guide

Because custom means made just for you.

Luxury crochet, custom-made to fit you perfectly. Follow this guide to ensure the ideal measurements for your piece.

Achieve the perfect fit with our luxurious Printable Measuring Tape—whether for headwear, swimwear, or clothing, our tool will guide you through each step with ease.

Headwear (Accessories)

For the perfect fit of headwear such as headbands, sun hats, ski masks, beanies, and more, follow these measurement instructions to get the ideal size.

Step 1 Icon

Step 1: Measure head circumference. Wrap the tape around the widest part of your head, across your forehead and above your ears. Measure comfortably, not too tight.

Step 2 Icon

Step 2: Keep the tape snug but not tight, and ensure it rests comfortably around your head.

Step 3 Icon

Step 3: Record the measurement to ensure a comfortable fit for the perfect headwear size.

Swimwear Measurement Guide

For a flawless fit, it's important to measure carefully based on the specific swimwear style you're interested in. Whether you're opting for a bikini, two-piece set, or a one-piece, we’ve got you covered.

Bikini Tops

  • Bust: Measure across the fullest part of your bust, ensuring the tape rests comfortably and snugly without squeezing.
  • Under Bust: Measure directly under your bust, keeping the tape comfortably snug but not tight.
  • Arm Circumference (if applicable): For tops with straps, measure around the fullest part of your upper arm.

Bikini Bottoms

  • Waist: Measure around your natural waistline, the narrowest part of your torso.
  • Hips: Measure around the fullest part of your hips and buttocks.

Bikini Sets (Top + Bottom)

  • For a complete bikini set, mix and match your top and bottom measurements. Measure both your bust and waist/hips to ensure the perfect fit.

One-Piece Measurements

  • Navel to Low Back: Place the measuring tape at the center front, just below your navel. Run the tape down through your legs, keeping it snug but not too tight, and bring it up to the center of your lower back.
  • Bust: Starting from the side of your rib cage, just below the armpit, measure across the fullest part of one breast and stop at the center of your chest.
  • Neck to Navel: Place the measuring tape at the center of your collarbone and measure straight down until you reach your navel.

Caring for Your TJC Crochet Items

We want your crochet pieces to look fab and last for years. Here are some simple steps to keep them in tip-top shape—treat them with love, and they’ll keep you looking amazing for years to come!

Machine Washing Your Crochet Item

Follow these easy steps to keep your crochet pieces looking their best after a machine wash.

  1. Load Your Washer: Wash your crochet item with similarly colored pieces, or on its own for added precaution. Acrylic yarn won’t bleed, but it’s always safest to keep shades together.
  2. Use the TJC Mesh Laundry Bag: Pop your crochet piece into the mesh bag we provided and zip it up. This helps protect it from snags and keeps it safe during the wash.
  3. Choose Your Wash Settings: Cold water is your friend here! The delicate cycle is ideal, but your crochet won’t be harmed by other settings either—no worries!
  4. After Washing: When the wash is done, remove your crochet from the mesh bag if you’re air drying flat. If you're using the dryer, just toss it in with the bag to the next step.

Machine Drying Your Crochet Item

For those who need a faster drying method, follow these steps:

  1. Set the Dryer: Use low heat when machine drying (the mesh bag is recommended but not required). Acrylic yarn holds up well in the dryer, but high heat can warp it—low to medium heat is perfect.
  2. Fuzzies? No Problem! If your crochet piece gets some fuzz after drying, don’t worry! Fuzzies are completely natural, especially with daily wear or after washing and drying. Simply grab some scissors or a lint shaver to smooth them out and keep your piece looking fresh. If, after washing, you're unsatisfied with your item or the fuzzies persist, reach out to us directly. We’re happy to guide you through the process of removing them, or, at the best, we’ll provide a replacement if necessary. Your satisfaction is our priority!

Air Drying (If You’re Not in a Rush)

Lay your crochet flat on a towel or hang it in a well-ventilated area to dry naturally. It works wonders!

Hand Washing Your Crochet Item

Hand washing is a great option for those who prefer a gentler approach.

  1. Cool Water, Please! Fill a sink, basin, or tub with cool water and add mild detergent. Avoid hot water or harsh chemicals like bleach—your crochet deserves better than that!
  2. Gently Clean: Let your crochet soak for 15–30 minutes. Gently rub the soapy water into the yarn with your fingers, focusing on spots that need extra attention.
  3. Rinse & Repeat: Rinse with cool water until the soap is gone. Don’t twist or wring out—simply press out the excess water gently.
  4. Dry It Right: Lay your crochet flat on a towel and roll it up to absorb moisture, then lay it flat to finish drying. You can also hang it if you prefer.

Storing Your Crochet Item

Keep your crochet pieces safe and dust-free with these simple tips:

  1. Use Your TJC Zipper Bag: Once your crochet piece is fully dry, store it in the frosted zipper bag we provided to keep it fresh and ready to wear.
  2. Keep It Dry: Ensure your crochet is completely dry before storing. Avoid dark, damp spaces to keep your crochet in perfect condition while storing.
