Jewelry comes in many forms. You may be familiar with the traditional compositions of silver and gold, but there’s a new trend on the scene that’s shaking up what you once thought about adornment: fiber jewelry. Whether it’s crochet, woven, embroidered or felted, jewelry made from alternative materials is on the rise, and it’s quite avant garde. (And beautiful!) Check out our collection below to get a taste!

I try to buy organic and sustainable food because it's good for the world, and my health. However, whenever I find myself feeling too high and mighty, some Doritos always seem to help me dial it down a notch. Read more

Cool, I didn't realize I was part of a trend. I just started making my knitted cuffs and bangles as a way to use up my leftover thread! Like I say in my profile, with a little creativity you can find a use for almost anything. :)

Fiber jewelry allows you to be more creative, so much colors, Europe and most specially Spain, is into crocheted jewelry. They are light, easy to clean, they do not tarnish and easy to fix if they break. No two are alike. I just started crocheting silk thread with beads and they better than metal chains. Check out a few of my pieces.

I had a bin of cashmere sweater scraps and a 3-month stint on crutches. The result? Cuff bracelets with cool cashmere craziness coming out from all angles. Fiber jewelry is soft, human, and oh-so tactile. I just need a summer option for a girl that LOVES wool and cashmere. Convo me with your ideas!!
