"Behind the Design" | Designer Spotlight Series | La tienda de paloma | 3 Boys & A Ball of Yarn

"Behind the Design", Designer Spotlight Series

Designer: La tienda de paloma, crochet artist


When I had the idea to create "Behind the Design," designer spotlight series, I knew I wanted to use it to introduce you to some of my favorite artists. What I didn't realize was just how starstruck (and subsequently inspired) I would be. 

I mean...these are designers I would consider the equivalent of a "celebrity crush." I have followed their rise in the crochet community...waited with baited breath for their new pattern releases...and sat in awe of their talent as I studied their techniques and designs. 

Planning this new series of interviews and getting to know the amazing human beings "behind the design" has become one of my absolute favorite things.

So, grab yourself a warm cup of coffee, tea or (depending on what time of day it is) a relaxing glass of wine. Sit down, kick off your shoes and get comfy. 

First up, I'd like to introduce you to the lovely Paloma Perez from La tienda de paloma


(Isn't Paloma beautiful!)
