Gingerbread House Amigurumi

Holiday season is in full swing here over in the maker community. Countless projects on projects, from gifts to home decor, are on everyone’s minds. This is peak season for crocheters and knitters alike. Let us deck the halls with everything yarn related. It is absolutely amazing that the power of crochet brings many of us across the globe together through the passion of everything yarn. We are gearing up for the holidays, and to kick us off into the holiday spirit, let us welcome Vira!

Happy Holiday Making, Vira!

Hi! My name is Vira. I’m amigurumi addicted since 2012. I crocheted and sold the finished toys for a long time. In 2018 I decided to make the patterns for my toys and I realized that it is my calling! You can check all crochet patterns which I created at this moment in my shop.
