About Claudia
My name is Claudia Serván Ortiz, founder of La Peque Tejidos. I was born in Chachapoyas, Amazonas, and grew up surrounded by the strength of my mother and family. I am also the niece of Luis Ortiz Perea, one of the nine students murdered in the Cantuta case, a story that shaped my path and commitment.
In 2018, I created La Peque Tejidos as a space to share the ancestral art of crochet I learned from my maternal family – a tradition of gathering, resilience, and care. Using mainly cotton yarn, I design pins, keychains, bookmarks, and more, inspired by culture, memory, and everyday life. Each piece is made with dedication, carrying both my personal history and a message of value for handmade work.
