Hi there! 

I am Maro and I am always making something even if it's just making fun of myself!

This is my blog Akamatra which started back in 2011 as an attempt to channel my creativity and share it with anyone who wanted to listen. The name Akamatra is an old-fashioned way to say (in Greek) that I am lazy in house - related chores. Which I am, no matter how you choose to put it, lol! I'd rather crochet or cook than do the dishes or vacuum. 

As you'll see if you'll stick around, this isn't just a craft blog. I am a complex person with a lot of interests and I choose to put them all in one blog (SEO be damned). You see, I get bored easily and I can't stand still so I am either crafting or cooking or maybe sipping tea while reading the latest book I am reviewing, or I am away travelling with my husband and daughter. I even venture to write our family adventures into attachment parenting. I love to decorate imaginary houses in my mind and find new ways to be eco-friendly.

If you are looking for a cute amigurumi pattern, a yummy sugar free dessert or the latest trend to interior decorating, Akamatra is the place to be.

I am always ready to answer your questions and hope you'll stick around! If you need to you can contact me through my social media or via This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..

P.S.: It's a good thing some of the new type disorders weren't a thing back when I was growing up because I am sure I would be labeled with a bunch of them!
