Hey there!
I'm Fatma, and in 2021, I stumbled upon Etsy, a real game-changer for me. That's when my mom and I decided to take our passion for hand-knitted products to the next level by launching our own store.
See, my mom is a knitting virtuoso. Ever since we were little, she'd craft the most amazing cardigans, sweaters, scarves, and berets for me and my siblings. I was always captivated by her knitting, and one day, I asked her to teach me. That's when my hobby turned into a skill I honed over time.
Before the pandemic hit, I was grinding away at a bank. But when we shifted to remote work due to the pandemic, I had the chance to explore Etsy. I was blown away by the array of beautiful handmade products available.
I made a decision. I was done with the bank gig; it was time to bring our knitted creations to Etsy. I shared my plan with my mom, and she was totally on board, backing me every step of the way.
Initially, I started by replicating cardigans and sweaters worn by my favorite singers. But as time went on, I expanded our Etsy store by creating new and unique designs.
My Etsy journey, which kicked off in 2021, is still going strong. Big shoutout to all the incredible Etsy sellers and our amazing customers. Sending love your way! ❤️
That's the tale of how my small business started. Remember, always treat people with kindness. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
