Portfolio

Welcome to the world of ArtEC.

My name is Elena Carretta; first and foremost, I consider myself a mother. Second a crochet/knit designer, maker and seller. I love experimenting with glass painting techniques also.

In general, I like to play with different materials and make daring combinations among them.

I learned crochet as a child, but it’s only with the birth of my son that I decided to put my skills to good use and started designing. I wanted a life allowing me to be present for him and pursue my goals at the same time.

I have always seen knitting at home, with my mum. I always liked it, but I only decided to approach it in 2017, with the separation. It was really helpful for me to be able to study and focus on new techniques

Services I offer:

– tutorials (beginner, intermediate and advanced levels) free on my YouTube channel

– one on one/group lessons and mentor ships (paid)

– patterns

– handmade items

– pattern translation (French / English / Italian)

– detailed videos of your patterns (this is a serviced targeted to designers wanting to supply their audience with a variety of resources)

I write articles for Magliuomini since 2016 and am a Moogly Maker and cooperator since 2013.
