ART AND YARN


I was immediately intrigued by the Etsy shop of Ayca. Her original designs and color concepts just captured me. I felt compelled to find out more about Ayca and share it with you.
Ayca lives in Turkey with her husband and toddler daughter. When she isn't running after her she focuses on her other passion.
Ayca has a special gift in designing with yarn. She found that her original designs were appreciated by the public and by Etsy and has been featured many times.
She learned how to knit and crochet when she was about 6 years old, but has only been doing it professionaly for the past year and a half.
She confessed to me that for her unique color combinations she has a secret advisor - her husband. He gives lectures on the Turkish Carpet and its art form and has a background in color.
Visit her shop and be captivated with her individual designs. Here is one of her lovely pieces.

  4. What a beautiful scarf, wonderful color choices too! At the age of six I thought I was great because I could tie my own shoes, that is an amazing talent (something to do with my dyslexia I suppose)
