I am so so excited about this one!
Meet Lena Fedotova of @Ravliki!
Lena is one of those people that leaves me in awe every single time I look at one of her designs. Her attention to detail and commitment to creating well-fitting garments is astounding.
It is a true honor to have her participate as a guest designer on Plyful. I, for one, cannot wait to learn from her!
"I'm Lena Fedotova, a crochet designer from Ukraine currently living in Montenegro. I started as a knitter and taught myself crochet, making mistakes along the way that shaped my design journey.
My main focus is creating new crochet stitches, textures, and techniques. Continuously in search of distinctive, never-before-seen textures, I dedicate a significant part of my daily routine to experimenting with my crochet hook. I use designs, from shawls to sweaters, as a canvas to showcase my inventions.
My crochet motto is simple: 'shawls have to be well-sized, sweaters — well-fitted!' Delving into details like neckline shaping and shoulder lines is another puzzle I love solving. I am happy I have found a vocation that makes me feel like an explorer every single day."
