Andrea crochets the most adorable animals and gnome-ish characters! I love how each character has its own expression and "attitude", so to speak.
What I like most about Andi's story is her honesty. Here is what she writes about herself and her art:
I must confess: I adore crocheting. For me is a way to express myself, my creativity, my undamped fever to creation. I became passionate for the huge amount of pleasure it brings to me.
But it was't so always. When I was child, I often saw my grand-grandmother crocheting in her spare time. She often asked me to sit aside her. But I never thought that this needlework could be so joyfull for me. I didn't learn crocheting from her. I'm very sorry about that. But when I became mother I wanted to make for my children beautiful things and I remembered what wonderful stuffs has been made by her. And I tried. And I maked my first amigurumi, a little dino for my older boy. For then I haven't been able to stop.
Here are a few of my favourites from crochAndi:
I love this lion's mane!
And if you can't decide on one animal, here is a collection of mini animals - what a great way to use your imagination!
Head on over to crochAndi to see all of her lovely creations!
The zebra stripes in the last picture totally look like houndstooth...my favorite pattern!
