About

My name is Alessandra, born in Brazil, but I live in the beautiful Pacific Northwest with my husband and two kids.
Crochet has been my passion for most of my life: I learned to crochet from my grandma Dirce, my dad’s mom. She taught me how to crochet using silk thread and a very small crochet hook; my first project was a clothes hanger cozy. Let me tell you, silk is tricky! But I didn’t give up crocheting with that slippery thread and tiny hook, and have never stopped crocheting since.
I am a Guinness World Record holder for the Longest Crochet Marathon, I crocheted for 34 hours and 7 minutes non stop!
Needless to say, crochet is a huge part of my life, I hope you enjoy my creations and much as I do!

Happy Crocheting!

Alessandra Hayden
