Lovely interview. Just ordered the book to support Andrea’s creativity and philosophy about how to use the patterns in it. The crab and the Maple Leaf are chef’s kiss perfection! Cheers 🥂

@@Fiberchats did you do formal education/training in how to interview? You are seriously talented in this area and you make it seem so natural.

[@Fiberchats]

@@sleepydrJ haha, not at all. It was actually my challenge to myself to go in front of a camera, the most uncomfortable place and try to come up with questions without writing anything down
