My small business journey began during one of the darkest periods of my life, as I stepped onto the long road of Mental Health recovery. In this incredibly difficult time, my therapist encouraged me to seek the silver linings - things that sparked joy in my life, however small - and I subsequently found three shining sources of light: crochet, the Wizarding World and Nature.
Five years later, this golden trio lies at the heart of Bumble & Be. I began by crocheting Fantastic Beasties, but have now expanded beyond both crochet and fandom to a wider concept of "bee-ness." Creating products that inspire, comfort and encouage you to bee-lieve in everyday magic; to seek what makes their soul smile; to trust that silver linings can always be found.
NEW || Baby Niffler Pattern
After all this time... you can set your own crochet baby Niffler FREE. From their gold-snatching paws to soul-seeking eyes, these flufballs are sure to bring magic and mischief in equal measure!
This pattern is distinct for being almost entirely seamless, using short rows to form the pouch, arms and legs as part of the main body. So if, like me, sewing is one of your pet peeves... this pattern could be the Felix to your felicis!


I designed this keyring as a gift for three fellow WitchCrafters - it features all our drakies and beasties together! In a world of competition and comparison, it is easy to assume that such friendships could not exist - yet they do, because we recognise the things that unite us.
I had a few keyring left over and, in light of the ongoing crisis in Ukraine and the incredible show of unity from citizens across the world, I have decided to list them and donate 100% of revenue to 'Choose Love’, a charity who are providing support to people in Ukraine and refugees. You can find the keyring here.
