Dubai, UAE · Made to order
Hand-crocheted shawls, granny-square pinafores and baby sets — hooked one loop at a time in Dubai. No two pieces alike.
Four things Nish makes best. Every colour is swappable — pick your yarn, she hooks it.

The maker
I learned to crochet from my grandmother in a house in Nepal where nothing was thrown away and everything was mended twice. Two decades and one move to Dubai later, the hook still comes out every evening.
Knitty Nish started as gifts for friends' babies. Word travelled through the school-gate WhatsApp groups faster than I could hook, and here we are — working from the comfort of my home, a wall of cotton yarn, and a waiting list I try very hard to keep honest.
Everything is made by my hands alone. That means slow, and it means yours is genuinely yours.
