ON THE HOOK

How and when did you learn to crochet?

I learned when I was a child. I’ve always loved all kinds of craft activities – honestly, my hands have never been able to stay still for more than a few seconds! In Italy there are three months of school summer holidays and every year during that time I learned how to crochet, knit, embroidery, sew… all for the benefit of my dolls!

How did you come to start designing your own patterns?

I should thank my curiosity. When I was young I was used to browse my grandmother’s magazines looking for stitches and motifs
