Here at Crochet Foundry, we LOVE working with all the talented crochet designers that we have the privilege to showcase in our magazine. In this Designer Interview series, we’ll get to know some of this month’s issue’s designers. Today we’re talking to Jackie Laing, who contributed the extremely adorable Cozy Campfire Set amigurumi crochet pattern in our September 2023 issue.
What’s your name and brand (if you have one)
Amidorable Crochet
What is your design for this month, and can you tell us a little bit about what inspired it?
Cozy Campfire Kit! I was inspired by one of my favourite parts of camping….everyone loves to sit around the campfire!
What were some challenges about designing this piece?
I think the biggest challenge was making my rough sketches come to life. I feel the most difficult was the hotdog pattern!
What are a couple of fun facts about you?
My biggest fear is deep water. I’ve lost more weight than what a currently weigh. And I’m addicted to coffee.
