Hi, I’m Olena – the designer behind Jolly Lizard.
I’ve been crocheting since childhood, starting with handmade doilies I sold back in school. What began as a hobby grew into my full-time job after someone asked, “Can you write a pattern for this?” Now I’ve published over 35 designs and counting.
I love creating beginner-friendly patterns with thoughtful colorwork and simple techniques – especially anything with granny squares. I’ve been a freelance designer with Hobbii for over a year, and my patterns often appear in their campaigns.
When I’m not crocheting, I’m probably hiking, traveling, or relaxing with yarn and a good detective series.
