About Me

Hi there! I’m Sibel, the face and hands behind The Poko Design. My journey with Punch Needle started over 5 years ago, and what began as a simple hobby quickly turned into a lifelong passion.
For me, punch needle isn’t just about creating beautiful textures; it’s a way to slow down, relax, and bring a touch of handmade warmth into our modern homes. Over the years, I’ve refined my techniques, experimented with countless yarns and fabrics, and now, I’m here to share all that experience with you.
Through this blog, I want to show you that anyone can create something amazing. Whether you are a total beginner or a seasoned crafter, you’ll find easy-to-follow guides, simple tips, and free patterns to spark your creativity.
When I’m not punching away at a new design in my studio, you can find me designing digital patterns to help you start your own projects with ease.
