Karma Crochet

“I offer a variety of crafts because I’m the creative sort, always making something different — whatever draws me in at that moment.” Ivanisevic says. “I don’t have a specific style; I’m just attracted to color, especially with fabrics.”

That love for fabric all began with a Barbie doll.

“Some family friends gave me my first Barbie when I was a child in Argentina. The toy stores there didn’t have doll clothes, so I started sewing outfits for Barbie. My mom was a seamstress, so there were plenty of cloth scraps for me to work with,” she says.

Today, that’s evolved into an all-out craft business, which she runs out of her Preston Hollow home when she’s not working her nine-to-five.

“I continue to craft because I enjoy the creative process — if it felt like work, I wouldn’t do it,” Ivanisevic says. “And I also enjoy the connection I make with my customers. When you buy a locally-made craft, you’re supporting a neighbor’s form of art — and you’re doing something environmentally-friendly because this product wasn’t shipped in to some store from halfway across the world.”
