Hi, I'm Anna — maker, designer, and the one behind of the new shop - LOOP №7.

(You might know me from Anna Burton Designs — more on that in a sec.)

​

HOW IT STARTED

It all began with a hook, some yarn, and way too much free time on my hands as a new stay-at-home mom. What started as a hobby to keep my hands busy turned into a full-blown obsession — I taught myself through YouTube tutorials and free Pinterest patterns, and before long I was selling my work on Etsy, Ravelry, and LoveCrochet.

​

That little side hustle became POPcrochet — a small shop built on bold colors and patterns, designed to add a little "pop" of personality to your everyday. From there it grew into Anna Burton Designs, with three branches: crochet patterns, handmade hard goods, and digital downloads — plus a growing wholesale side working with local shops around the country.

​

Here in Sparks, NV, this business has been years of frogging, WIPs, way too many stitch markers, and a whole lot of learning as I went.

​

WHAT'S NEW?  SAY HELLO TO LOOP №7

Same maker. Same quality. Brand new look.

​

I'm retiring the Anna Burton Designs name and launching LOOP №7 — a brand name that's about the craft and the community... a brand that is not just about me. (Loop - because crochet is my fav hobby. №7 - my lucky number) The products, the quality, and the person behind the counter aren't changing one bit — just the name on the label.

​

LOOP №7 officially launches January 1, 2027 — new site, new name across every platform, same maker you already know.

​

Under the new name, everything's organized into three simple places:

​

• Crochet — original crochet patterns, notions, swag and the free stuff too

• Shop — the handmade goods: tote bags, stickers, pin badges, bookmarks and more, all in that signature black-and-white silhouette style

• Maker Tools — practical digital downloads for makers and small shop owners: Procreate stamps, thermal labels, yarn calculators, and digital art.

​

If you're a local shop carrying my notions and bags, don't worry — the products, the packaging, and the person filling your orders are exactly the same. Just a fresh name on the tag.

​

WHY THE CHANGE

LOOP №7 is a name built to outlast any one chapter of my life — including this one. It's not tied to me personally, which means the business can keep growing (and maybe even outgrow me one day) without missing a beat.

​

COME SAY HI.

I'd love to have you along for this next chapter — subscribe for updates on new releases, sales, and the occasional giveaway (tote bags and patterns, obviously). You can also find me on Pinterest, TikTok, Threads and Instagram.

 

Here's to starting the new year as LOOP №7 — thanks for being here, old name, new name, always the same maker.
