Say hello to Peachy @peachyxtulips - our new Ribblr of the Week and designer behind peachydesigns.co! 
Tell us a little about yourself:
Hi! You can call me Peachy, and I use she/her pronouns. I’m from the United States, am currently in high school, and I love spending time with my family, and doing my hobbies, like crocheting!
When did you start crafting and how?
I started crafting through my grandma, who taught me the basics of crocheting. She showed me how to do a chain stitch, and that was all I knew how to do for about a year. From there it was just a lot of YouTube tutorials. Crocheting helps me be a bit closer to her, as she currently resides in a different country.
And how did you start designing?
I was inspired by all of the other designers on this platform, and I wanted to try designing as well. Designing helps me create and personalize crochet patterns to my exact liking!
Do you have a favorite craft type?
My favorite craft is probably crocheting. It’s so versatile and fun!
What was the most memorable project you worked on?
My most memorable project is definitely my granny stitch blanket. It took far too many balls of yarn, and was my longest project ever. I did finish it, but it is so itchy, as I used acrylic yarn.
What are you currently working on? Be honest - how many WIP do you have right now?
I’m currently working on market prepping, as well as trying to get some more patterns out before school starts. Currently, a 2-in-1 apple bookmark pattern is in the works, and it should be out soon! In total, I have about 3 WIPs!
Which of your makes/designs are you most proud of?
I am really proud of my cute cake pattern that I designed for 300 followers. It is a collaboration with one of my best friends on here, @dreyzchoic3!
What is your usual process of designing?:
I usually start with a thought I have, and I just go right in with a hook and my yarn. My artistic skills are nonexistent, so I pretty much completely rely on my imagination. As you can imagine, this process involves a lot of frogging.
What inspires you to create/design?:
I get inspired from Pinterest, people on Ribblr, and watching some of my favorite creators on YouTube!
Any favorite song, book or movie you would like to recommend?:
My favorite musical artists at the moment are Sienna Spiro and KATSEYE (eyekons assemble)! As for books, I would recommend The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo, the Hunger Games series, and I love all of John Green’s books (Looking for Alaska and An Abundance of Katherines were my favorite).
What is your favorite feature on Ribblr?:
My favorite feature on Ribblr is probably the testing feature. It really is so helpful to make sure my designs are as neat as they could possibly be!
Take over our feed! Which 3 - 5 designers/patterns on Ribblr are your favorite?
My favorite designers on here are so hard to pick, but I would like to give a shoutout to @katz2, @Am20cr0chets, @MeppleLeaff , @Brittdub, and @wenwynn! I love all of your guys’ designs <3
What socials can folks find you on?
I am on Youtube (though I don’t post) and Pinterest, and my username on both is @peachyxtulips!
Thanks for being here this week Peachy, it was a pleasure to read about you!
