Vio Crafts

My story

Hi, I’m Violetta, a passionate crochet designer with a love for all things creative. My journey started early—whether it was crafting, sewing, knitting, or embroidering, I was always immersed in hands-on projects. After high school, I took my passion to the next level, creating a crochet dress collection that won first prize at the Fashion Festival in Moldova in 2003, and was selected for a fashion show in France the following year.

I pursued my love for design by studying Fashion Design and Pattern Making at ESMOD Fashion College in Paris, where I graduated with a Master’s of Arts degree. My career took me to the USA, where I taught sewing and pattern making at the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising in San Francisco, while also showcasing my wedding dress collections in fashion shows and winning awards.

In 2012, I shifted focus to my online fashion and wedding accessories collection. During the COVID lockdowns, I rediscovered my love for crochet design. Now, I create crochet patterns and teach crochet on my YouTube channel, sharing my knowledge and passion with others.
