I am Cyrilla Ann Malis, my husband and I live in Houston, Texas. I am originally from Trinidad & Tobago. I have always been fascinated with making and creating things. When I was 15 years old, my neighbor taught me to crochet using thread, I was a fast learner.
Most of my income comes from participating in craft shows but I enjoy selling on Etsy too. Necessity is truly the mother of all inventions. It was becoming very difficult to find pattern books for certain projects that I wanted to make. I still use pattern books. I never saw myself as a designer, but after the urging and encouragement of my husband, I started designing some my own patterns. My goal is to one day have my work published by a major crochet pattern book company.
