I learned how to crochet when I was 12, starting with home pieces like rugs. A few years later, I discovered the amigurumi technique. I thought I wouldn't like it because of the small stitches and the patience required for sewing, but I fell in love! I love being able to create dolls and animals.
Besides that, I also enjoy making bags and some clothing. My favourite piece, however, is the shawl. What I love most about crochet is the magic of seeing a simple ball of yarn transform into something tangible, whether it's a bag, an amigurumi, or a shawl.
Even though I've been crocheting for over a decade, my journey as a teacher is a more recent chapter. For many years, my craft was a personal passion, a way to relax and create for myself, friends, and family. In recent years, I have started sharing my knowledge informally, teaching friends and small groups the foundations of crochet.
In my classes, I focus on making the process clear and stress-free, especially for beginners. I have experience guiding people through their first stitches and helping them master techniques like the Magic Ring and tension control. I am now transitioning into formal teaching and I am excited to help the ClassBento community discover the joy of creating their own handmade characters.
