Leire Villar learned how to crochet more than 10 years ago and has been passionate about it ever since. She loves that you can create a unique object with just a needle, yarn, and orderly rows of knots. Under her brand Ameskeria, she creates products for women and children that she sells online or at craft fairs like Festivalet.

She also shares her passion for crochet by teaching workshops, decorating street furniture with crochet designs, and through her digital magazine of crochet patterns that she co-founded with Ingrid Valls and Nuria Picos. In addition to crochet, Leire is passionate about photography and is always looking for ways to combine both worlds and find her own form of expression through images.

Daniela Inostroza and Pilar Ramírez are a Chilean crochet duo who are fully devoted to amigurumi, both creating them and teaching others their craft. Although their original career paths (law and biology, respectively) had little to do with this art form, they found true happiness among hooks and yarn.

That's how Tutitas was born. Through social media and their website, Daniela and Pilar provide crochet kits and patterns to anyone who shares their passion for amigurumi. With years of combined experience, they love to experiment with a variety of techniques in their work to create cute designs that are also fun to crochet. Their style is characterized by pastel colors, floral motifs, touches of fantasy, and romantic-style accessories.
