Aegeri Farbig 2021

Agnes

My name is Agnieszka (Agnes), I come from Poland, and I’ve been living in Switzerland with my family for seven years now. I am a mom of three children (12, 8 and 3). I used to work in Finance, but I stopped when we moved here. However, it gave me a lot of new opportunities. I am a Face Yoga Teacher, I also work as a proofreader for several bloggers, I sing in a choir and I finally have time for handcrafts. I get involved in many different local projects, so when I heard about Ägeri Farbig I knew that I definitely want to be a part of it. My grandma showed me how to crochet when I was 6 years old. I did a lot of stuff for my dolls then, but since adolescence I haven’t done much, only some small works from time to time. My biggest crochet project so far was a baby blanket for my sister-in-law’s daughter, which I made about six years ago. Ägeri Farbig gave me the opportunity to try out different patterns, I made squares, hands and arms for a Tree Hug, and I also joined the squares for the blue tree jacket, so a lot of things that I wouldn’t normally do. I also would like to crochet amigurumi, there’s still time for it ? What is so special about this project is that it unites the women of many nationalities, we can share our experiences, inspire each other, and make new friends. I just can’t wait to see the results.
