Here is from my interview with her!
How did you start out?
I always loved creating and somewhere deep in my heart wanted to be a clothing designer. This was a childhood dream and growing up in small town in Russia I believed that it will remain a childhood dream. Until I met my husband and he brought me to Canada. All of my degrees were not in demand here so I decided to follow my passion. And… my childhood dream became a wonderful and joyful reality. Sometimes I think that dream is not just a dream, but something God has for us in mind:)
How long have you been knitting? crocheting?
Crafting and housekeeping was a compulsory credit at the school. Also my mom was a creative person and taught me the basics. And, I can sew too:) Cooking though is a whole different story…
Do you prefer knitting or crocheting?
I like both. Each of this technique has benefits. For example, crocheting will let you create many different shapes, but knitting will showcase the stitch so beautifully.
Do you have a favorite hat that you make?
My all time favorite was Calypsohttp://www.etsy.com/transaction/68914885 Unfortunately almost sold out. I also really like this cutenesshttp://www.etsy.com/listing/90957266/baby-raccoon-hat-knit-newborn-hat-baby
Do you make things other than hats?
Yes, I do. I have a large variety of newborn items, blankets, cocoons, diaper covers etc. I love making scarves and there are few of them available at FashionTouch
What is your favorite color to work with?
I am a fan of all green and blue:)
Are your items available only for photogs?
No. In fact many of my customers are parents or ordering for themselves (adult sizes). I even equipped one of the Russian snowboarding teams with my Mohawks:)
