About the Brand
I’m Qiana! I’m a full-time mom of two young boys, & I’m a crocheter.
My journey into crochet was inspired from my kids! My oldest son has Autism Spectrum Disorder & loves stuffed toys. My youngest loves them just as much; the stuffed toys take up more than half their beds! One day I saw a "make your own Amigurumi" kit on Instagram & wanted to see if I could actually make a toy that they would love! With practice, I got better; I wanted to widen what I could do, & I started expanding my pattern uses. I began to really enjoy crocheting & creating these stuffed plushies that put a smile on both of my son's faces. I loved crocheting so much I couldn’t stop, & now I crochet beanies, ear warmers, & blankets too!
Q Gurumis (started in 2023) is now my small business to share what I enjoy with you!
I thank all of you for being a part of this new journey & supporting me!
I hope you all enjoy your “handmade with love” products as much as I enjoyed making them!
