Athena Liu | Seedling Stitch
Hi, I’m Athena or 小禾/Xiaohe, which literally translates to “seedling” in Chinese. I grew up in Harbin, China and am now living in Vancouver, Canada. Here I chat about my knitting & crochet & sewing projects, often from Japanese patterns or my own designs/modifications. I’m working on my own knitting book this year and I'll share the process of making my designs in my videos.
