Anna Nikipirowicz was taught to knit and crochet as a child by her very talented mother, but without practice, the skills were quickly forgotten. In 2005 she rediscovered her skills and an obsession was born. In 2014 she started designing and selling her patterns. Her designs are regularly featured in craft magazines. Anna is also a workshop tutor, teaching knitting and crochet across the UK. Anna lives in Hertfordshire with her husband Dave and two cats, Ollie and Brick. She is a keen blogger and runs her website - www.moochka.co.uk - where she shares her love of knitting and crochet.
