Let me introduce myself: Sandra La Madeleine. I am a summer lover, Harry Potter obsessed, tattoo enthusiast, drawing lover woman.
I also have a strong taste for alternative rock and the colour black.
I first made my debut in this yarn world in 2014, when I received hooks as a way to kill time during my pregnancy. That’s how I made my first woobly and unconvincing steps. Surprinsigly, I still slowly got addicted to it.
In 2015, wanting to put all my project pictures together in one place, I decided to start a Facebook page. Thus creating L’amas de laine. A wonderful french pun with my family name, thank you very much.
I started in the design world in 2016 when I published my first crochet pattern: my version of these wildly popular sneaker slippers. And if I was discovered by that pattern then, that’s definitely not what my shop is known for today!
Because as years went by, I went back to my first love: drawings! And even if I switched my crochet hook for a pencil, I wanted to stay true to my first goal when I started all of this: to get yarn lovers thrilled! That’s why I mixed my love for yarn and my love for illustrations. To offer stationery thought out for yarn lovers and fans.
And I hope you’ll love it as much as I do!
