Erika’s Crochet Laboratory · Memphis, TN

Handmade little creatures, brewed one stitch at a time.

Hi, I'm Erika. I crochet amigurumi, test and design patterns, and vend at markets around Memphis. I also like to create new things, such as cat ear beanies, coasters, and purses!

Lab notes

Equal parts science and yarn.

Erika’s Crochet Laboratory started as a way to turn spare balls of yarn into something that made people smile, then grew into pattern testing, original designs, and a booth at just about every market in Memphis. Every piece is crocheted by hand, one experiment at a time.
