One sleepless night after I gave birth to my son Noa (now a mischievous three year old) sitting in the comfortable chair in the corner of my bedroom I was thinking of my grandmother and my childhood and all the fun we had with her. An idea came to my mind. Crochet! Wasn't that what made my visits to granny unforgettable. We used to have so much fun with that.
Having a BA in Journalism and no job at the moment, I suddenly realized that I can easily start my own business at home. Crochet is simple because it is not messy and it doesn't take up much space (which is really important when you have a toddler running around you all day), and ... you really don't need a proper studio (although I must admit I dream of having a one) and you can work anywhere, everywhere...
I never get tired of crocheting, or finding new ways to invent a new design! My inspiration comes mostly from nature. Flowers, leaves, animals, can all these be transformed into unique and one of a kind jewelry pieces just with a yarn and a hook? Well, if you have a little help of your imagination and fantastic ideas running through your head, they certainly can. And, they do!
Making one single item requires a lot of hours, days, sometimes even months to complete. An idea is born in an instant. But a way to a finished product involves painstaking work on finding new ways for stitches to obey my desires and to transform themselves into what I want them to be. I wake up with crochet in my mind, and go to bed counting stitches.
I love all my pieces, and it feels as if with every stitch I make a part of my soul goes into it. So when buying one of my products, you are not just simply buying jewelry, you are buying my thoughts, my feelings, my love for my son...
Actually you're not buying just a piece of jewelry, you are also buying a piece of my soul.
Have fun wearing it and enjoy life!
