About the Author:
Voodoo Maggie discovered crochet at the age of six from a great-grandmother, and ever since it's been her favorite crafty hobby. After falling in love with amigurumi while surfing the Internet looking for inspiration, she started designing patterns and selling them through various online marketplaces, like Etsy and Artfire. Now she has three children, a wonderful husband, and a hobby that is her job. VoodooMaggie.blogspot.com
