MEET THE DESIGNER

Who Is Mistie Bush?

Mistie Bush is the owner and designer behind American Crochet. She learned to crochet at 16, began designing patterns in 2007, and now runs a community of thousands of crafters.

My journey with crochet began at 15, taught by a cherished family friend. That early spark reignited in 2004, and by 2007, my passion evolved into designing patterns I love to share with you.

American Crochet, Mistie Bush Designs, and Crafting A Rainbow Of Hope are more than businesses—they’re extensions of my life’s purpose. Along with my husband Kevin and our family, we’re dedicated to weaving hearts together through the joy of yarn arts.
