When my friend Katie asked me to make her 3-month-old son a mobile, I was in the middle of learning how to crochet amigurumi. I was excited to finally have a purpose for all those little animals I was making! I got to work determining a theme, discussing colors and figuring out patterns on how to make it all work as a hanging mobile.
That mobile turned into two more commissioned mobiles, then more and more friends and family started having babies and I began to get requests. Now I always have a mobile in the works, and the medium has grown to include handsewn felt and needle-felted mobiles.
