 Before we start crocheting let’s get acquainted :)

My name is Evgenia.
Like many other crocheters, I was involved in amigurumi
making when I had been in my maternity leave. I have three
years of crochet experience, and during a half of them I have
been designing my own toys and writing patterns.
Along with the toys making I fell in love with photography. I
finished two educational modules in a photography school. And
now I successfully reconcile two of my passions
My toys are simple, without complicated details, but still they
are very deep, with their own character and story...
