Threads of Passion

My Story

My name is Cristina Vasconcelos and I was born and raised in a small countryside province in Portugal where I’ve always had a very close relationship with handcrafts as per my country’s traditions. Having learned to knit and crochet with my eldest sisters, I started crafting crochet dolls and doll apparel during childhood by the age of 7.

One Stitch at a Time

Throughout high school I used to make beanies, sweaters, scarves, and other fashion accessories to sell. Over the years, I’ve always created the gifts to offer my loved ones on special occasions.

From Portugal to Canada

In 2012, I set sail for Canada to start a great adventure full of challenges. I did not indulge in the pleasures of my hobby for a while, but as soon as I got back to it, crafting beanies and scarves, they quickly became very successful amongst my work colleagues and friends and soon received many orders.

From My Hands to Your Heart

Crochet is my deep passion and I craft each piece with utmost care. My dream is to bring a little bit of that passion and care to as many people as possible!
