Olga Sokerkina
Textile artist, macramé master and author of the book
I have been weaving macramé for half of my life. I have been blogging about macramé for more than 6 years. I specialise in textile decoration of restaurants, hotels and shop windows.
My clients: Meatcoin restaurant, Seven restaurant, Yahmur Spa, Cashmere and Silk shop, Volga Hotel (Kostroma), Happy in the Mountains eco-hotel (Krasnaya Polyana). I wove the carpet for the Moscow restaurant Meatcoin, which was included in the Russian record book, for 4 months. Its final size was 300*400 cm, weighing about 200kg.
She has written a book called "Macramé with Russian Soul", scheduled for release in September 2024.
In 2023, I won the Hometextile & Design International Textile Designers and Decorators Award in the category "Realised projects of textile decoration of commercial objects" with my projects for restaurants mentioned above. For the last few years I have been researching Russian culture.
