My name is Elise. I live in a small village in the Haut-Doubs region of France with my husband and our two kids, Noah and Éléonore. I have always been fascinated by the manga universe, which has been a great source of inspiration to me. Ever since I was young, I have loved designing things to make. I went on to study fashion design, where I was able to bring my clothing designs to life. I discovered crochet during my first pregnancy. I started by following patterns made by other creators, but I soon took the plunge and created my first doll, Aya. Since then, I have gotten a huge amount of pleasure from imagining, designing, and crocheting dolls and their outfits. Today my dream has come true! I could never have imagined that one day I would have my own book. I am so happy to share this wonderful adventure with you. For my first book, I wanted to revisit my earliest creations. I have loved this opportunity to revisit my early days as a creator. I hope you enjoy meeting Aya, Kitsune, and all the others. I have put my heart into this book, and I hope you will have a great time in the company of all these cute dolls.
