When it comes to creating, I love textures, handmade materials, and things with a visual history.
Andrea
Hello! I’m Andrea. Welcome to the shop for unique freeform crochet and fiber arts! Using the finest materials and often unique fibers such as hand-spun yarns, vintage fabrics, or unusual fibers. I love learning new techniques and ensuring every item is truly one-of-a-kind.
My inspiration comes from all over, but my family—a wonderfully supportive and creative bunch—are my biggest cheerleaders (and sometimes partners in fiber-finding adventures!) My background in art of the Americas, as an art museum curator, and in teaching art history to college students adds another layer to the mix. Working with college students keeps me surrounded by brilliant, fresh ideas and endless creativity, often sparking something new in my work.
Over the years, I have enjoyed collaborating with other notable designers, local artists' shops, theme park shops, and major retailers. Each experience has been a joy, and I am grateful for the support of each one of you. Thank you for reading this and joining me on this grand adventure.

I always look for the most fabulous fibers to bring into my crochet designs. I love exploring how different textures and materials work together, and each piece I create is a little journey of its own. Since I don't typically follow patterns, every item is unique, reflecting the yarns and fibers that speak to me along the way.
