Hooked: A Memoir in Crafts

From Broadway stages to quiet moments with a crochet hook, Sutton Foster shares the ways creativity helped carry her through life’s biggest highs and hardest seasons in Hooked.

Best known for her award-winning stage performances and her role on Younger, Sutton writes openly about family, heartbreak, fertility struggles, motherhood, performing, and finding steadiness through making things with her hands. What began as cross stitch during her early theater days eventually grew into crochet, collage, drawing, and other creative outlets that became woven into her life story.

Warm, funny, and deeply personal, this book blends memoir with creativity, including crochet patterns, recipes, and reflections on how crafting can become both comfort and connection during uncertain times.

A lovely read for makers who understand how yarn, fabric, art, and creativity often become part of the way we process life itself.
