Hello and welcome to my shop! I'm a 34-year-old woman living in an old cabin in the middle of the Swedish woods. Here I live a calm life with my boyfriend, cat, our 11 chickens and my plants. Besides taking care of my animals and garden, I also love mushroom gathering, so during autumn I spend a big portion of my spare time in the surrounding forests.
I went two years at the Swedish textile academy and my main craft is weaving, but I enjoy other crafts as well, such as sewing and pattern design. I started selling my shawls in 2017, and it's now my only income. I'm inspired by nature, fantasy, fairy tales and I love earthy colors and textures.
My shawls are all handwoven. One shawl takes between a few hours up to several days to make, depending on size. I love to use uneven, irregular yarns in earthy colors to create a unique texture. They are soft and warm, and I only make a few of the same kind. I always strive to produce as little waste as possible, so all the scrap yarn is being used to create my unique "scrap yarn shawls". Even the shortest pieces of yarn are being used. The pieces of yarn that are too short to weave with I save for later and when I have enough I turn it into new yarn.
I also offer custom-made scarves, shawls and hoods. Do you want a shawl in another color than the ones I offer? Check out my custom listings, I offer a wide range of custom colors. :)

5 out of 5 starsThis hood is absolutely stunning. Fantastic workmanship, and the shoulder loops truly do make it very easy to wear. I've even been wearing it around the house on the days that are cold enough

Frequently asked questions
Gift wrapping and packaging
All items are shipped in plastic bags made from 100% recycled plastic. I wrap every order in colored tissue paper but I can't offer any other kind of gift wrapping or personalized messages at this time.
Custom and personalized orders
Most of my woven designs can be custom made in a wide range of color combos and textures. Just send me a convo and we will start working on your custom order. Please note that custom orders are not refundable.
Returns and refunds
You can return your items for any reason as long as you contact me within 14 days of delivery, but unless it arrived damaged or faulty in any way you will have to pay for the return shipping as well as the cost for shipping the item to you. Your order will be fully refunded within 72 hours of being received back to the return address upon inspection of the item for meeting the return criteria of new unworn, unaltered, as delivered condition. If the item does not meet those requirements upon receipt back and inspection, you agree upon returning the goods that any loss of value while in your possession and responsibility prior to receipt will result in a partial/non refund for loss of value and not being in resale condition.
Patterns
I do not offer patterns or tutorials.
Outfits
I only sell handwoven shawls, hoods and scarves. All other clothing seen in photos are from my private wardrobe and are not for sale.
Care instructions
Very gently handwash separately in cold water using small amount of mild wool detergent. Soak for 1-2 min. Drain and add clean cold water. Repeat until water is soap free. Do not rub, wring or twist. Place the shawl on a dry towel to drain excess water. Let it air dry flat on a drying rack away from direct heat and sunlight. Do not tumble dry or iron. Wool items do not need to be washed as frequently as other clothing, airing is usually enough to freshen up your shawl. When not in use, store rolled up or on a hanger, not folded, and away from direct sunlight.
Safety warnings
My products are intended for adult use only. Keep out of reach of children under the age of 13. Potential loose threads in the woven fabric may pose a risk of entanglement or choking for young children.
Although wool is naturally flame-resistant, keep the products away from open flames or high heat sources.
US customers
A 15% extra cost for tariffs are included in the price for all standard items (not for custom listings). I will take care of paying the tariffs, so there will be no extra surprise cost for you. Right now US-customers can't purchase any of my custom listings, (a settings issue with Etsy) until its fixed please contact me directly, and I will set up a private listing for you instead.
