About Sandra Stitches
Sandra Regev lives in the beautiful town of Haifa in the northern part of Israel with her husband. She is a mother of three amazing ladies and a grandma of one little man. She learned to crochet at the age of 7 taught by her mom. Crochet was a constant part of her life, especially in big decision-making periods when focus and peace of mind were needed.
When Covid hit the world and she found herself at home all day, crochet was her savior. Since
then she started designing her own patterns, mostly easy to follow with lots of texture. When not
crocheting or designing Sandra travels the world, babysits her grandson, and goes hiking with
her family.
Her designs can be found on Ravelry, on her website and on her Facebook community where all the crochet stories come to life.
