WHERE IT ALL BEGAN…

When our youngest child was born, I decided to step back from my career and stay home to enjoy those younger years with her and our two other children. In doing so, I needed to keep my hands busy during the quiet parts of the day. Searching for a new hobby, I found a video on how to crochet a basic infinity scarf. Once finished, the scarf was not as pretty as I hoped and I was determined to make one worth wearing. From there, I practiced many different stitches and kept on crocheting to get better.

After a few years of crocheting animals from other designers, I wanted to make unicorns for my girls but couldn’t find one that was unique in any way. To me they all looked the same, white with round feet and rainbow stringy hair. So, I free-handed a floppy, rainbow-speckled unicorn with bright orange hooves, a curly pastel mane, and a small sparkly horn. A unicorn that stood out not only by its bold colors but by its chunky hooves and floppy body, best for cuddling.

AND… I feel in love with designing Amigurumi!
