My name is Alessandra, and I was born in Marilia, a small town in the state of Sao Paulo, Brazil. Crochet has been my passion for most of my life: I learned to crochet from my grandma Dirce, my dad’s mom. She taught me how to crochet using silk thread and a very small crochet hook; my first project was a clothes hanger cozy. Let me tell you, silk is tricky! But I didn’t give up crocheting with that slippery thread and tiny hook, and have never stopped crocheting since – I have been doing it for over 20 years, some times more often than others, but have never stopped. I now live with the beautiful and green Pacific Northwest (Washington - USA), with my husband, son, daughter and dog.
