About Nini's Handmades

Nini's Handmades was founded Oct 27th 2007, after my husband was let go from his job right before the 2008 economic crisis. In order to take care of my family, and help my husband out during a stressful season in our lives. I started on Etsy and to this day I am still successfully selling with a 5 star rating. I love what I do! I love knitting and sewing and crocheting and I feel blessed to be able to call my hobby my business. My knowledge of knitting and creativity comes from my heritage, my birth place Germany, and my parents Home Country Turkey. My love for bright colors and knitted things come from my early memory of my Grandma's creative talent. I would watch her for hours sew on a very old hand turned sewing machine. She would create these absolutely perfect sheep's wool filled silk quilts, in all colors and display them on one long wall in her living room. The overwhelming array of colors overloaded my senses and ever since then I wanted to create bright and pretty things.Read their story
