DARAMADE is the studio of Dara Raffa

Designer + Maker of Hand Stitched Goods

I’m Dara and I spend my days crocheting super soft snugglers for the little loves in your life.

Hi there!

While my focus is on crocheted goods, I am a maker through and through. I love working on punch needle pieces, woven wall hangings and fun floral embroideries. 

Based out of my sun-soaked home studio, I happily stitch the day away (though let’s be honest, as a mom, most of my work gets done after the sun has set)!

When I'm not tangled up in yarn, you can find me spending time with my super cool dude of a husband, my awesome little humans and my silly rescue pups.
