Awesome Crochet by GinaRenay's Page

About Me:

Hello, my name is GinaRenay. I am the CEO/Creative Artistic Director and HHIC, which is the "Head Hooker in Charge" of AWE!Some CROCHET.


I am an avant-garde knitwear crochet designer and freestyling visionary designer of AWE!Some CROCHET. I am an innovative instructor extolling both individuals and groups in the art & joy of freeform design. I specialize in YOUnique wearable art clothing and accessories with a strong afrocentric flair with touches of Victorian and folk art influences tossed in the mix. All of my designs are one-of-a-kind spontaneous artistry. I believe one should either be a work of art or wear a work of art: to thy own style be true.
