How it began...

The label "alhats designs" was founded in summer 2024, but the passion for crocheting has lasted my whole life.

I started crocheting clothes early in my life and in the beginning I used patterns from other designers. Later, I started to develop my own designs. It's nice to know that you can create your own clothes and choose materials and colors freely.

When friends asked me where I got this pattern from, I realized for the first time that other people are interested in my patterns, and then I decided to found Alhats Designs.

Vision

My vision is to create designs and instructions that can be easily replicated by anyone. There are no limits to the type of clothing. "Everyone can create any type of outfit for any occasion, whether formal or casual."

Personal fun facts

What I don't like so much:

  • the feeling of crocheting and I notice I'm running out of yarn. Anyone who crochets a lot will know this feeling.
  • sewing two rows together isn’t really my thing, but it’s part of it, and when it’s finished, you’re even happier that you can keep crocheting.
  • hiding the threads isn’t really my thing either. That's why I always try to crochet the threads in as I go where possible (Tip: video).

What I definitely like

  • it is a great feeling to be able to make your own clothes
  • there is no better feeling than being in a yarn store and being able to choose whatever you want. Not so nice is having to make a decision because you can't take all ;-)
  • the feeling of seeing wool and already having a clear vision of what you could make from it

The journey goes much further

Crochet can do so much more! This is exactly what aroused my fascination early on. The many possibilities and the fine look never cease to amaze me.

For example I crochet my Christmas tree decorations myself, or  make nice crocheted latern for the balconcy.

I just love the versatility of wool and crocheting.
