Как я переводила мастер-класс и оказалась на кладбище стульев

Я просто хотела перевести мастер-класс.

А оказалась на кладбище стульев. Среди ежевики, гранатов и кактусов.

    

Но давай по порядку.

From Stitch to Word: Translating Dandelion Pattern

 From Stitch to Word: The Journey of translating my crochet pattern into Russian and Hebrew

Hey there, fellow crochet adventurers! 🧶✨

You know that feeling when you’re deep in your crochet groove, hooking stitches like a pro, and suddenly you realize... your pattern needs to speak more languages? Because what’s better than one language? Two! (Or three, if you count the secret language of yarn and coffee mugs ☕️)

So, I took my beloved “שן הארי” (aka “The Lion’s Tooth”- the dandelion) and decided it was time for it to travel beyond borders. Destination? Russian and Hebrew

Crochet a Sunshine – No SPF Crochet Pattern

Why everyone needs a tiny sun they can squish.

If you're the kind of person who needs sunshine in your life but also enjoys hiding indoors with yarn, I’ve got the perfect solution: a crochet sun that never burns, never sets and never judges your binge-watching habits.

Introducing the Sun Crochet Pattern – a cute, palm-sized ball of warmth and joy designed to brighten your desk, fridge, gift wrap or your soul (yes, that too).

🍓Tiny Fruits, Big Dreams: A Mini Harvest in 17 Pieces🍍

What do you pack for a seaside visit? Towel, diving mask… ?

In my case add a tiny crochet hook and a rainbow of Italian crochet thread.

Because nothing says “relaxation” like stitching a cherry next to crashing waves.

"Clean and Neat" quiet book

These books have one of the most unusual stories. 

Client: Michal, final-year design student

Project: Custom-made interactive quiet books based on original storyboards

Theme: Clean-up and organization habits

Books in Series: 3

Year: 2025

Purpose: Final graduation project, showcased in a student exhibition

Michal approached me with a clear creative vision: a trio of quiet books designed to teach and encourage children to clean up after themselves and stay organized. As part of her final project for design school, she created detailed storyboards in Illustrator and completed these three books on her own, but needed more professional fabrication to bring her vision to life.

I translated Michal’s visual storyboards into fully functional handmade quiet books. Each book features tactile, interactive activities tailored to her concepts—objects to sort, tidy and spaces to organize. 

The books were completed on time (and the time was really rough - just a month for all three books) and in alignment with Michal’s storyboard designs with my adjustments.
