We challenged Santa Pazienzia to crochet with her eyes closed, then with her left hand. How will she get on?

Estefa González, who goes by the moniker of @santapazienzia, is a crochet designer and teacher. She started out in crochet in 2014 and hasn’t been able to stop ever since. In parallel, she also published 9 eBooks, several online courses and over one hundred patterns! She works with brands including: Katia, Casasol and We Are Knitters.

Domestika set Santa Pazienzia a two-fold challenge to really test her crochet skills. First she had to stitch with her eyes closed. Then she had to crochet with her weaker hand, which in this case is her left.

Find out how she gets on in the video!

Free Download: Workbook for Building Your Personal Brand

Download a practical workbook to define your story, organize your ideas, and start communicating your personal brand with greater clarity and authenticity. Building a personal brand goes far beyond designing a logo, choosing a color palette, or writing an eye-catching LinkedIn bio. Before thinking about how you want others to see you, it’s important to answer a much more important question: What story do you want to tell, and why is it worth listening to? Personal branding isn’t about inventing a persona or pretending to be someone else. It’s about identifying what’s already part of your journey: the experiences that have shaped you, the values that guide your work, the knowledge you’ve acquired, and the unique way you add value to others. When these elements are organized and communicated with intention, it becomes much easier to connect with clients, collaborators, or future professional opportunities. However, putting all of that into words isn’t always easy. Many people know exactly what they do, but they struggle to explain why they do it, what sets them apart, or what kind of projects they want to attract. To help you with this process, we’ve put together a workbook to help you build your personal brand. This free resource brings together practical exercises that will allow you to reflect on your professional journey, discover recurring themes in your story, and transform those ideas into a clear and coherent narrative.

How to Create Color Palettes with a Narrative

Learn how to choose, combine, and organize colors in a creative project to convey emotions, enhance a mood, and tell a story with greater intent There are creative decisions that the audience perceives even before they pay attention to an illustration, a photograph, or a poster. Color is one of them. An image can convey calm, unease, nostalgia, or energy in a matter of seconds—long before we stop to analyze its composition or content. That’s why choosing a color palette shouldn’t be limited to simply combining shades that are pleasing to the eye. Colors also build meaning: they help define a project’s personality, distinguish characters or spaces, accompany the evolution of a story, and guide the viewer’s gaze toward what truly matters. However, it’s common to start the creative process by opening a color tool and testing random combinations. The result may be an attractive palette, but one that’s disconnected from the project’s intent. In this article, you’ll discover how to create color palettes with narrative meaning, learning to make more conscious color choices. We’ll explore what questions to ask yourself before choosing a single shade, how to build a palette step by step, and how to use color to reinforce the story you want to tell—whether in an illustration, a visual identity, a photograph, or an audiovisual piece.
