I am Cristina, the knitting and crochet designer behind crisdvic.  I live in a beautiful town near Barcelona, where I have my workspace and dedicate myself to a hobby that began in my childhood. I enjoy slow and mindful handicraft work, quick and simple projects, but also challenges.

My inspiration may come from everywhere, but it usually starts from a skein of yarn, a color, and the “someone” (even myself) intended to wear or use the finished craft. I like to mix textures and colors, but usually keeping a soft, relaxing look.

I believe that slow and mindful handicraft work can be a powerful tool for self-expression and stress relief, and I strive to share that joy with you.
