FINE CRAFT CROCHET DOLLS
Fabiola Castillo
"Let me introduce myself, my name is Fabiola or Faby to my friends.
The idea of making plushies, sculptures or, better still, pixies, little magical imaginary beings, came a little for the art of magic...
When I was little, everyone around me knitted or crocheted. When I was at university, I was lucky enough to spend more time with my lovely grandmothers again. I'll always remember the afternoons when I'd come home from university. I'd settle down to knit with my great, beautiful companions: mi Abuela and my great-aunt."
FOR THE LOVE OF NATURE
"The love and respect for our beautiful nature has always been there. I've always been involved in school projects related to the environment. My university research, meanwhile, was linked to the founding myths of our culture (always intrinsic to respect for Mother Earth). I've always had a lifestyle in harmony with Nature, living a zero-waste lifestyle (even before the term existed). In short, the love of Nature runs through my veins!"
MAGICAL, COMMITTED AND ECO-FRIENDLY
"Lutin de Forêt (or Forest Spirit) was born in 2017 with the mission of enabling children to play with healthy, responsible, sustainable pixie plush toys with the smallest ecological footprint. Each pixie materializes by mixing imagination, magic, respect for the environment, cotton and
crochet.
And thanks to this magic, these
pixies accomplish their most important task: sharing their love of nature and imagination. They become faithful companions, protectors of dreams, attendants of magical moments."
