About Silvia
I’ve been crocheting for over 20 years and have created a wide range of projects, from granny square blankets and throws to bags, hats, and clothing such as tops.
I enjoy helping others learn and have previously led informal crochet groups where people would come together regularly to learn, practise, and work on their own projects in a relaxed setting.
For me, crochet is not only a creative skill but also a calming and rewarding activity. I like to keep things simple and practical, helping you build confidence while creating something you can actually use or wear.
I can also guide you in choosing materials in a smart and affordable way, so you can enjoy the process without overspending.

I have over 20 years of experience in crochet and focus on helping you create real, finished pieces in a simple and enjoyable way.
We start with the basics—how to hold the hook, core stitches, and how to follow patterns—and quickly move into practical projects. My goal is for you to start making something you can actually use or wear as early as possible.
A typical lesson is hands-on and guided step by step. I explain what you’re doing while you practise, correcting where needed so you improve without frustration and build confidence as you go.
At the start, we’ll also go through the materials you’ll need. I can guide you in choosing good, affordable options so you don’t spend unnecessarily while learning.
Once you’re comfortable with the basics, we’ll choose a project together—such as a top, bag, cushion, or blanket—so you can learn while creating something meaningful from the beginning.
This approach works especially well if you want to learn crochet and actually finish projects, not just practise stitches.
Recommendations

Silvia helped me prepare for job applications and interviews in a very structured and practical way. She was able to take my experience and help me organise it into clear, relevant examples that I could actually use.
What stood out most was her ability to break things down step by step—understanding the role, aligning my experience to it, and building strong answers using a clear structure.
Her approach is focused and practical, and I came away with a much clearer idea of how to present myself in interviews.I’ve seen Silvia teach crochet in a very practical and approachable way. She has a lot of experience and is able to explain things clearly, especially for beginners who might feel unsure at the start.
What I appreciate most is how she breaks everything down step by step and focuses on helping you actually make something, rather than just practising techniques. She’s patient and pays attention to what you’re doing, correcting gently so you improve without feeling overwhelmed.
I’ve seen her guide people through projects like granny squares and other pieces, and she makes the whole process feel achievable and enjoyable. You can tell she really knows what she’s doing and how to help others learn.See more recommendations
