Fios da RiaSlowly, as it should be
Three simple gestures transform a thread into a keepsake.
The artisan
Hi, I'm Catarina! 👋
In 2024, I discovered crochet, and what started as a passion quickly turned into a creative refuge. Fios da Ria was born from the desire to bring characters, ideas, and little pieces with soul to life. Each amigurumi is handmade, stitch by stitch, with immense dedication and attention to detail. From pop culture and video game icons to cozy seasonal themes, there's always a bit of what inspires me here—and I hope it brings a smile to whoever receives it.
The process
01
The idea
Everything begins with a drawing and a palette inspired by the ria.
02
The stitch
Each shape grows slowly, row by row.
03
The soul
The final details bring expression and make each piece unique.
