GREETINGS!
My name is Ara! My family calls me Lele, though that is not a name I will answer to other wise. When I was younger I dreamed of having a fashion brand called “Lele…Loves”, so I’m making it real!
Crocheting has become a large part of my life and I would like it to be even larger (since I can’t stop crocheting).
On this site I plan to take orders for various clothing items I feel confident in making myself. From book sleeves to ponchos to hats. (And whatever else I end up coming up with)
I don’t often use patterns, as I believe in my skills enough to make random patterns from my mind. Patterns do provide more structure and security, so I am happy to use them when wanted.
Thanks for reading! You’re cool and awesome. Love you!

I’ll be honest, I have no clue! I am in the process of timing myself every time I pick up a project. But depending on the item, it can take me up to 2 weeks to finalize a project.

Nope! I haven’t made one before so never say never. But as of right now I’m not interested in making amigurumi’s or taking orders for them.

Meh. I’m trying to take care of them the best I can, knowing that I want to crochet forever. I wear a compression glove when crafting, but I really need to be doing hand stretches before and after crocheting.
If you’re a friend I will accept random texts to stretch my hands & wrists.
