Valeria Torres
Hello! My name is Valeria Torres, I am from Mexico, and I love creating new things with yarn. I started crocheting when I was 8 years old thanks to my parents, and over time I have been learning how wonderful, beautiful, and relaxing it is to crochet, although at first it may seem a bit difficult. I am currently studying biochemical engineering and in my spare time I knit amigurumis and crocheted flowers to sell. For me, it is a way to distract myself, improve my mood and my concentration on things.
