Brand Story

Two years ago, I moved to Seattle and found myself surrounded by endless rain and a life so different from what I once knew. The shift was overwhelming—I slipped into a long period of sadness, lost in a fog where I couldn’t return to the past nor see a way forward.

One day, I came across a crocheted sunflower online. It was so radiant, full of warmth and light—just like how I used to be: optimistic, cheerful, and confident. That flower stirred something inside me. I picked up some yarn and began to crochet a sunflower of my own—one that bloomed not in a field, but in my heart.

As I crocheted, I felt calm and present. Every stitch, every pattern, brought me into a state of peaceful flow. Perhaps this was a gift I’d long buried. Slowly, without strain, I created an entire garden of yarn flowers—each one a small light dissolving the shadows of winter.

Now, I hope to share these flowers with others. Each piece is made with care, design, and emotion—crafted for anyone who might be going through a dark season of life. Even a simple visit to this page, I hope, can offer a moment of warmth and comfort. These flowers carry a message: you are not alone, and there is light ahead.

The name of this brand is inspired by the Italian phrase for “love yourself.”

A shift in thought, and the flower blooms.
We are all on our way to becoming our most radiant, one-of-a-kind selves.
