I learned to crochet when I was 10 years old with my mum and sisters, my dad sent us all to private sewing and crocheting school. Since then I developed a love for crochet as a craft that enables me to relax and keeps my mind healthy.
Crochet is an amazing skill to learn.
Come to discover the beauty of this almost forgotten yet still alive relaxing craft with many benefits.
