Olga is inspired by the colours, textures, materials and seasonal changes of her surroundings which she translates into patterns. She now lives in Syros, a dreamy island in the Cyclades, with her family. She can be found on Instagram @plextopattern.

Reviews for Radiant Raffia: 20 Inspiring Crochet Projects Made With Natural Yarn

Panagopoulou debuts with an elegant guide to creating accessories and homeware from raffia (...) Patterns are both written out and charted for maximum ease of use, and the idyllic photos modeling the items on the beaches of Syros, the Greek island where Panagopoulou lives, enchant. Intermediate and experienced crocheters eager to branch out from yarn will want to give this a spin. * Publishers Weekly *
