Inas
Ontwerper van haakpatronen · Mandala-liefhebber · Gevestigd in Indonesië 🇮🇩
Hi! I'm Inas — a self-taught crochet designer who fell in love with mandala patterns and never looked back. I design precise, community-tested patterns that work for real yarn, in real conditions.
✨ Mijn verhaal
I picked up a crochet hook for the first time in 2019 — mostly because I wanted a specific mandala I'd seen online and couldn't afford to buy. I stayed up until 3am trying to decipher a pattern with missing instructions and a blurry photo. I finished it. It was lumpy. I loved it.
By 2022, I was writing my own patterns and sharing them in Facebook groups. People kept asking "will this work with DK weight?" and "what diameter will I get with 3mm hook?" — and I realized nobody had a good answer, because yarn behaves differently for everyone.
"What if we collected real data from real makers? So every pattern page could answer those questions with community-submitted results?"
That's how Inas Craft was born. Not just a pattern shop — a living database of maker experience, where every PDF sale funds more free patterns for contributors.
