hey friend! I'm Skye a first-time mum living in Berlin who loves all things crafts and I'm currenly on a journey to build a handmade wardrobe that's intentional, fashion foward and actually fits my new life.

here you'll find knitting and sewing vlogs, honest pattern reviews, thoughtful chats about slow making, creativity, personal style, and everything i'm learning along the way.

i'm not an expert just someone who's choosing curiosity over perfection and documenting the process as i go. if you love beautiful craftsmanship, cozy projects and building a wardrobe you'll genuinely enjoy wearing, i think you'll feel right at home here.

so glad you’re here 💖

hey friends,
have i already mentioned how happy i am you’re here? 🩷 making videos is only half the fun, the other half is getting to chat with you in the comments.

i wanted to give you a little update on what i’ve been working on these past couple of weeks. i decided to sew the coe trousers by daughter judy, and i finally finished them this week! i can’t wait to share the results (and a little pattern review) with you on friday.

what do you think of this pattern? have you sewn it before, or is it on your to-sew list?

Happy weekend, friends 🤍

This week has been a bit of a whirlwind. I’m learning that juggling motherhood and creativity isn’t always easy. I love making videos so much, and I never want it to feel forced or become a source of anxiety, so I’m trying to find a healthier balance.

There won’t be a video this week, but I’ll be back soon. I’m choosing to embrace this season instead of just pushing through it.

If you have a child, how do you navigate this tension? I’d truly love to hear what’s helped you.

Take care of yourselves this weekend and look for the little joys 🤍

p.s. here’s a little dump of my week ✨

Friends, I competed the first project from my winter/spring making plans! My first sewing make of the year and it isn’t even for myself! Who am I?!
I sewed my husband this self drafted Sherpa vest and it’s just everything I imagined and more ✨

I must say though I have worn this more often than my husband already, is it a sign? 😂

Definitely planning to make mine soon. Probably with little to no changes other than a few centimetres shortened. Would you like to see a video on how I make these? ☺️
