About Me

I have been crocheting for almost 20 years, known for consistancy, class, color and style. My hats have been shown and sold in Manhattan, Brooklyn and Queens in New York as well as Los Angeles, CA and Teaneck, NJ.I enjoy creating art in my spare time and I work in most mediums. For the past 8 yrs I've been crocheting and selling my hats and other things. I also have been trading atcs for the past couple years. In addition to crocheting, I love painting, drawing, printingmaking (etching and linoleum cuts), stone carving and whatever else I come across or pops into mind. I have a BA in Fine Art/Computer Ad Design and MA in Painting.

About 8 years ago, I made my mom a hat. After being stopped on the street and in many stores with compliments and inquiries she simply told me, make more. So since then I've been making them and selling them mostly in the New York area for 7, 8 years so far. I think they add class and style while keeping your head warm and my smooth precision of years of work is recognizable.
