How are your handmade items made?
Ethics for Handmade Items
I specialize in customizing, knitting, reworking, and sewing all of my handmade items. As part of my commitment to eco-friendliness, here are the steps I currently take:
Handmade Item Sourcing:
Method 1: New and Second-hand Material
- I personally source and carefully select high-quality, durable fabrics from new and second-hand materials.
Method 2: Sweaters
- Sourcing Sweaters, which are harder to find in large quantities second hand, are hand selected by myself to ensure fine quality. I select items that are perceived to be like new. Second-hand sweaters are my favourite to work with for a number of reasons.
- environmentally better
- they allow me to exercise my creative abilities
- eliminating fast fashion
Method 3: From Scratch
- For some items, I sew and knit them entirely from scratch.
