This hand-knitted summer tank is crafted from pure merino wool—breathable, naturally insulating, and gentle on the skin. A quiet expression of minimalism, designed for those who value quality over excess. Rooted in sustainability, this piece is a reminder that luxury doesn’t shout—it whispers.

These handknitted socks, with their feminine design and floral detail, are made slowly and sustainably—crafted to bring comfort and beauty into the everyday.

Rooted in nature, inspired by flowers, and made to be cherished. Because even the smallest pieces can carry the soul of sustainable design.

In a world of mass production, handmade garments stand apart🧵 Each piece is crafted with careful attention to detail, not rushed through a machine but shaped slowly, stitch by stitch. Choosing handmade means choosing quality over quantity, and that’s a powerful act of sustainability🤍

When you choose to support handmade pieces, you’re not just buying a garment—you’re valuing the time, skill, and intention behind every stitch. You’re investing in ethical labour, low-impact production, and a piece that’s made to last—not to be thrown away.

Each of my summer piece is hand-knitted using yarns from Knitting for Olive. Their yarns are made from natural, traceable materials, free from harmful chemicals, and spun with care in family-run mills—making them the perfect foundation for sustainable, elevated knitwear🤍

A soft moment of Japandi elegance — Scandinavian simplicity meets Japanese aesthetic🤎
Each piece is handcrafted from natural materials, designed to be worn, loved, and lived in.
A quiet kind of luxury—where texture speaks louder than trends, and each piece carries the calm of considered creation.

A quiet luxury lives in the rhythm of hand-knitting.
Each stitch tells a story — of time, intention, and care.
In the world of slow fashion, beauty isn’t rushed, It’s cultivated. As I develop a new design by hand, I see that true elegance is not just in how something looks, but in how it's made.

Sustainability begins with intention🌿 Choosing hand-knitted pieces means embracing craftsmanship over mass production, timeless design over fleeting trends. It supports slower fashion and reduces waste. When you support a small business, you’re investing in a more thoughtful, human-centred economy🤍

Hinata is an elegantly ribbed tank top, showcasing a Japandi elegance with minimalist silhouette. Hand-knitted from traceable, ultra-soft merino wool, it offers exceptional comfort and sophistication.

Knitting your own sweater isn’t just fun—it’s a climate-conscious choice. Fast fashion is responsible for 10% of global carbon emissions and produces 92 million tons of textile waste each year. By choosing handmade, you’re reducing waste, avoiding unethical labor, and creating something that lasts.

Nature knows best🌿 Choosing 100% natural yarns—like wool—means embracing fibres that are biodegradable, renewable, and kind to the planet. It’s breathable, durable, and requires less washing, making it a low-impact choice for conscious makers and wearers alike. Sustainability begins at the source.

A beanie handknitted with luxurious alpaca — where simplicity meets Japandi warmth. Crafted with sustainability in mind for the conscious wearer, it’s an ode to timeless, mindful design.

Sustainability starts with slowing down. Made-to-order clothing offers a smarter solution—producing only what’s needed, when it’s needed. This model avoids overproduction, reduces waste, and encourages more thoughtful consumption. Every piece has a purpose, every purchase a conscious choice.

After picking up some pine cones in the forest and storing them to dry for 6 months, I finally dyed with them!! I’m very delighted with the results🤍 The colour on the socks came out pretty differently for some reason but that’s the fun of natural dying and the colour is so pretty😍

There’s a quiet indulgence in being wrapped in a soft, warm cardigan, alpaca beanie pulled low, and wool socks cocooning your feet—a sanctuary of comfort against the hush of a chilly Scandinavian day, where every fibre whispers warmth and serenity.
