Just a Little Personal: Hi, this is Lu and I apologize in advance for any spelling error you may find: English it's not my primary language as I come from Italy! :) and I live in the States (legally!) from a year.
I'm a 26 yo busy mom of 2 wonderful kids and I have this big passion for crochet that I'm trying to use to raise some money selling my "crocheted little things" as I like to call my works. I do not consider this like a job simply because I really enjoy crochet each and every piece!
I learned how to crochet when I was 9-10 from my mom who is a "doily maker". It was something I liked to do during summer breaks, but never thought I could use it like I'm doing now! I started crocheting during my second pregnancy, I got sick and I had to rest a lot for my little girl's sake so I needed something to keep my hand and mind busy while resting. Most of the works I did during that time are now for sale in my etsy shop. But so far never thought about selling anything, I was just having a lot of fun! Last year my hubby was out of job and we needed to buy clothes for my children...somehow I had a couple of skeins of yarn and I created warm sweaters for them (I think I have a pic of my daughter wearing it). When we went out everybody was asking me where I found those sweater....and orders came to me. I used to crochet gifts for family and friends and other orders arrived....then I tried to crochet some jewelry pieces and decided to try a craft show....it went pretty good and that's why I finally decided to seriously sell my works, even on line.
My inspiration comes from little daily things....the necessity of a warm garment, the willing of embellish my house...and so on.
I recently signed up for Child Care Training and my shop is helping me paying for it :)

Customer Praise; Why You Should Visit:

• I got my order very fast. I’m very happy with my order. They look really cute, carefully made with attention to details. Love the pattern, which is very elegant and very like this kind of cotton yarn with colorful splashes. I’m going to use them for my face, they are soft and can be used even on delicate skin. The size is just perfect for my small hands. They will be nice addition to my handmade soaps. Thank you Lu!! I very appreciate your work put into making these little things. -smo...
• I can't say enough nice things about this seller! She made a beautiful custom order for my daughters birthday-cupcake keychain rings made out of rainbow yarn that turned out so beautiful. She even put them in cute little gift baggies so I didn't have to do anything extra for the presentation of the gifts. She was in constant communication about her progress and finished the project in just a few days and had them shipped to me 3 days after I first contacted her! It is sellers like her that really make Etsy a joy to buy from and she gets my highest recommendation. I am planning on getting pin cushions as teacher presents this year for our Montessori school. Lu, you are such a delight. God bless! :) -felicity...
