Pull up a loop and stay awhile
Welcome to my website! Here you will find handmade crochet plushies, soft little comforts, and beginner-friendly crochet lessons.
My plushies are made one stitch at a time using premium soft yarn from New England Yarn, our local yarn shop.
Because each plushie is handmade in small batches, no two are exactly alike! Every one of them have their own tiny quirks, charm, and personality. Nothing here is factory made or mass produced.
They are carefully stuffed, shaped, and finished by hand, with lots of attention given to their soft huggable bodies, chunky texture, curled tentacles, and playful poses.

Hi, I’m Kat Pop.
I’m a one-person, self-taught crochet artist and the hands behind everything you see here.
PopKnotFive22 started simply: with a love for creating soft, comforting pieces and learning each stitch along the way. Every item is made by hand, one at a time, with care, patience, and attention to detail.
What began as a creative outlet quickly became something more meaningful. These pieces are designed to be held, squeezed, and kept close: simple, soft, and made to bring a little comfort into everyday life.
