Meet the Man Behind “Brochet”: The Wild, Woolly Art of Steven Borzachillo

Think crochet is just blankets, scarves, and cozy sweaters? Think again. California creator Steven Borzachillo is giving this classic craft a hardcore makeover with his delightfully twisted new style: Brochet, crochet with a bold, bizarre, and totally unbelievable edge!

Crochet… But Make It Dangerous (Sort Of!)

Instead of warm winter wear, Steven stitches up soft weapons that look fierce but feel fluffy. His growing arsenal includes a plush ninja star, a cushioned spear, and even a fully crocheted yarn cannon! They may look brutal, but each piece is harmless, hilarious, and entirely handmade.

Guts, Gore, and Giggles

Steven doesn’t just stop at weapons; he takes Brochet to the next level with crocheted bloody guts, severed limbs, and spooky body parts, all crafted out of colorful yarn.

The result? A display that’s shockingly gruesome at first glance but undeniably silly once you realize everything is soft and squishy.

Violence? Nope. Pure Humor? Absolutely.

While his creations might look intense, Steven insists Brochet isn’t about promoting violence.

Instead, he wants people to laugh, do a double-take, and rethink what crochet can be. His work flips expectations and shows that creativity doesn’t have to follow the rules.

Through Brochet, Steven hopes to inspire others to pick up hooks and yarn for themselves. Crochet, he believes, is for anyone and everyone.

Believe It or Not… It’s All Yarn!

From ninja stars to faux entrails, Steven Borzachillo’s Brochet creations prove that even the softest materials can make the boldest statements.
