My name is Jelena Mitic, and I was born in Belgrade, Serbia, where I live and work as a Russian and English teacher.

Beside my work at school, I have many other interests. Crocheting, knitting, sewing, macrame, and painting on textile are my everyday relaxation activities. Apart from that, I couldn’t imagine my life without books, dance, music, art, gaining new knowledge and making acquaintances with people, as well as with animals.

Ever since childhood I’ve had a strong inner desire to pass on my knowledge to others. Therefore, this blog has a purpose to serve all of you who are willing to expand your skills and learn new things in the field of crochet,  knitting, tailoring and sewing. Written, photo and video tutorials, dedicated to learning about new stitches, patterns and techniques, are what you can expect from Rag Doll.

On this site you will find paid as well as free patterns for shawls, wraps, caps, brimmed hats, dresses, skirts, blouses, home slippers, home decor, and many other creative ideas.

All of you who have similar hobbies and inner drive to create and learn or teach are welcome to join Rag Doll and share your experiences and ideas!
