Designer Spotlight: Tatsiana Kupryianchyk
"My name is Tatsiana and "Lilla Björn" means "little bear" in Swedish. I am not from Sweden... But I love cold and grey sea, fresh windy air, and I like to crochet little bears.
I am not an educated designer. I studied journalism and opera singing, I edited a magazine and sang in a choir. But crocheting and knitting has always been the greatest passion of mine.
A nice red-haired woman, Raisa, taught me to crochet in a kindergarten when I was a five-year-old girl. I regret so much that I did not find her when I grew up, and didn't thank her. But I still keep my kid's handmade things as a memory about her.
I like to create decorations for interiors and I can spend long hours learning new techniques, combining colors and seeing to where the whole process is leading me... And I can also talk about that for hours!"
